The experience of lake living begins as you take the drive along Lake Road and enter the driveway for The Residence- a private enclave of 21 homes on the shores of Lake Erie in Sheffield Lake. With Lake Erie as the backdrop, the classic architecture and landscape give way to a completely re-imagined lakefront living experience at the townhome at 3751 E. Lake Rd. From the moment the sellers purchased this home 10 years ago, they embarked on a thoughtful and elevated re-invention of this 1991 lakefront property to create a retreat that blends comfort, style and convenience. Lake Erie's beauty is on display the moment one walks through the front door. Walls were removed to create an open concept with unobstructed views of the lake. The living room has two seating areas, custom built-ins and a ventless fireplace. Sliding doors open to the recently rebuilt deck overlooking the beach. The adjacent dining room is perfect for gathering to enjoy meals prepared in the showstopping kitchen. The kitchen has every amenity including a large island for gathering, bespoke cabinetry, high-end appliances, gorgeous granite/soapstone counters and a walk-in pantry. A powder room, drop zone and access to the two car garage complete the first floor. Staircases were re-designed to allow for clean lake views from all levels. Retreat to the primary suite with lake views, generous closets and a primary bath with custom cabinetry, heated floors, walk-in shower and all-in-one washer/dryer. Two additional bedrooms share a full bath and ample closet space. The home's lower level is truly unexpected! This level allows direct access to the beach as well as unrivaled space for entertaining. Walk-in wine storage with glass doors holds 450 bottles - sure to delight any collector.This level can accommodate a large dining table and has a generous gathering area, full bath and separate kitchen area. A three season room opens to a walkway to the beach. Ready for lake life? This home is for you!
