This Modern Craftsman-style home sits on a peninsula overlooking a cove at Lake Murray. Outside, the beautiful brick complements the Hardie plank siding on the gable accents well. In the backyard is where it’s at, though, with a custom pool, two-story porch, boat dock, lake view, and circular patio with fire pit. With a backyard like this, you may never want to leave home again. Inside, the living space is magnificent with high, coffered ceilings and a wall of glass overlooking the lake. The French-style kitchen brings the provincial charm of Old World France and modern conveniences into a perfect marriage. And the basement is a beautiful in-law apartment with a full kitchen, perfect for parents or long-term guests to have their own private space. And the basement apartment even includes its own covered patio entry with a million-dollar view.
