Three Nest-controlled HVAC systems, energy-efficient LED lighting, updated ceiling fans, a reinforced garage door, motion-sensor lighting, rain gutters, storage shed, and a wired portable generator provide peace of mind and comfort year-round. Storage is abundant with walk-in closets throughout, a utility-sink laundry room, and thoughtfully designed storage spaces at every turn. Adding to its appeal, the home has been lightly lived in by its original owner, who occupied it only a few weeks each year. The result is a property that feels remarkably fresh, well-maintained, and ready for its next family. If you've been searching for a home that offers the space to grow, the flexibility to accommodate multiple generations, and the beauty of lakefront living without sacrificing modern conveniences, 1778 Waterside Oaks Dr is ready to welcome you home.

Value check
Is the price right?
The internet’s favorite home-value number comes from a single automated model that has never seen the street, the finishes, or the view — which is why it routinely misses by tens of thousands of dollars. The edgeAI estimate combines multiple independent data sources with our team’s on-the-ground expertise in this exact market.
