If you've been in search of the perfect family legacy home on Big Glen Lake, your quest may be over! This spectacular property is located on one of the best sandy beaches on the lake, the quiet little enclave of Whispering Pines, coveted by the discerning buyer looking for panoramic views of the ridge lines that surround the lake, Caribbean colored waters, and hard sandy lake bottom. You'll make generations of family memories as you gather for summers and holidays in this spacious, very well maintained home. Family and friends can gather to prepare feasts in the spacious kitchen with granite counter tops and hardwood floors, newer stainless steel appliances make the task at hand a joy for all involved! Cozy up in the lake facing great room with a wood burning fireplace after a fun day on the water, or as you celebrate the Christmas holidays. Every day will start out on the right foot as you and your guests rise to greet the day from each of the lake side bedrooms, with the primary/master suite on the main level and other bedrooms on the upper. Plenty of bathrooms to accommodate the crowds, with tile floors, some with custom tile showers, or tub surrounds, or Jack/Jill style split layouts. Extra spaces include a main floor office/study, upper level exercise area, and a lounge/family room, a great spot for media or games of all sorts! The spacious, oversized & attached garage is finished nicely with lots of storage capacity. The houses' brick and cedar shingle exterior is complemented by brick paver walkways, a beach side court yard, and an elegant south facing courtyard entry, flanked by a beautifully landscaped yard.
