Necedah Unifamiliare Indipendente

Welcome to Big Bay on Lake Petenwell—a place where summer lingers, the water sets the pace, and memories have a way of becoming traditions. Set on 2.57 private, wooded acres with more than 300 feet of sweeping lake views, this exceptional one-owner residence was custom-built with enduring craftsmanship and thoughtful intention. Beyond the stately entry pillars, a winding driveway leads through the trees to a home beautifully positioned within its natural surroundings. Step from the car and the appeal is immediate: shimmering water, a breeze moving through the pines, and the unmistakable tranquility of life Up North. The experience begins in the expansive three-season porch, where four-track collapsible windows invite in the sunlight and lake breeze while offering protection from the elements. Anchored by a wood-burning fireplace with a gas starter, this remarkable space was made for unhurried mornings over coffee, quiet afternoons with a favorite novel, and long evenings filled with cocktails, conversation, and spirited games of cribbage. Inside, the main living area makes a dramatic impression with soaring vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and a magnificent floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. Walls of glass frame the outdoors, filling the home with natural light and keeping the water in view throughout the day. Generous yet inviting, the open-concept design brings the living room, dining area, and kitchen together effortlessly—equally suited for every day living or a house full of guests. At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen balances beauty with serious functionality. An abundance of custom-crafted cherry cabinetry features soft-close construction and under-cabinet lighting, accented by granite countertops and a stainless steel appliance suite. Double oven, a Jenn-Air grill with downdraft ventilation, a pantry, and an oversized eat-in island create a space designed for gathering, preparing, and lingering long after the meal is finished. A conveniently located half bath serves both everyday living and entertaining. The main-floor primary suite provides the comfort and accessibility of single-level living without compromise. This private retreat features a walk-in closet, dedicated laundry, and an en-suite bath with a beautifully tiled walk-in shower, ideal for both present-day ease and long-term living. Upstairs, an open loft overlooks the main living area and offers a flexible setting for a home office, reading lounge, or additional accommodations for weekend guests. A custom metal railing accent piece adds an artful architectural detail, while two generously sized bedrooms and a full shared bath complete the upper level. With nine-foot ceilings, oversized windows overlooking the water, and an abundance of natural light, the lower level feels far removed from a traditional basement. Its expansive layout, complete with a wet bar, creates the ultimate recreation and gathering space- perfect for billiards, cards, movie nights, or watching the Packers take down the Bears. The lower level also includes an additional bedroom space(may not meet current egress requirements), a workshop or private office, a third full bath, a second laundry area with utility sink, and an impressive built-in gun safe. Outdoor living is every bit as compelling. A substantial deck overlooks the water, providing a spectacular backdrop for summer grilling, alfresco dinners, and evenings spent watching the light fade across the lake. Designed to welcome family and friends and perfect for AirBNB guests, the property also includes 50-amp electrical hookups and direct sanitary connections for visiting RVs. A whole-home Generac generator provides peace of mind and dependable year-round backup power. The exterior was freshly stained in 2026. The impressive 960-square-foot insulated garage features oversized doors, double-depth, and a spacious overhead attic with storage truss design accessed by a dedicated staircase- ample room for vehicles, t
