This beautifully maintained neighborhood is known for its picturesque brick-walled entrance, lush mature landscaping, tranquil ponds with fountains, and pride of ownership throughout. Unlike larger developments, The Gates of Lake Region offers a warm, neighborly atmosphere where residents enjoy quiet streets, manicured lawns, quality-built homes, and a true sense of community. This spacious 2,500-square-foot residence was originally constructed as a builder's model home and showcases numerous upgrades and architectural details throughout. Built with high-efficiency Ytong concrete block construction, the home offers superior sound reduction, enhanced structural performance, and meaningful energy savings.

Refined interior finishes include crown molding, oversized custom doors, handcrafted double entry doors, custom cabinetry, ceiling fans, a jetted tub in the primary suite, and a generously sized laundry room.
