Welcome to this exceptional custom-built Lake Murray home with deep, year-round water, a saltwater gunite pool, 1.06 acres, and the freedom of no HOA. This thoughtfully designed 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath home offers lake views from nearly every room, with quality craftsmanship and high-end finishes that create the perfect blend of elegance and comfort. Gorgeous hardwood floors lead to the main living areas and a chef's kitchen featuring double ovens, custom cabinetry, a gas cooktop, granite countertops, a center island, and a large walk-in pantry. The kitchen flows into a spacious family room with a gas fireplace and adjoining dining room offering ample cabinetry, a granite serving counter, and a wine cooler, ideal for entertaining. French doors lead to a sprawling Florida room, where lake views truly take center stage. A den and a half bath with marble floors round out this level. The primary suite spans the entire second level, where a wall of windows showcases breathtaking water views. A large sitting room, currently used as a gym, and an additional room with the potential for a 4th bedroom provide flexibility for your needs. The expansive custom closet, originally designed as another bedroom, offers exceptional storage space. The ensuite features a large shower, a garden tub, dual vanities, and a water closet, along with a conveniently located laundry room. The lower level offers a private retreat for family and guests, with a living room, two spacious bedrooms, a kitchenette, and two full baths, a stackable washer and dryer, plus plenty of storage for lake toys and gear. Step outside to a screened porch overlooking the expansive pool area, complete with an outdoor fireplace and multiple spaces to gather and relax. 124 feet of shoreline leads to a private mechanical dock with durable Ipe decking, a boat lift, and a rare grandfathered boathouse with an automated rail system. The extras don't stop at the water. An included .40-acre garden lot across the street, with irrigation and a shed, offers more space to make it your own. This is Lake Murray living at its finest, with Timberlake Golf and Country Club just a short walk away. Disclaimer: CMLS has not reviewed an
