About this property
Rare Deep-Water Lakefront Living-Turnkey, Updated, and Ready for Your Next Chapter at Lake Caroline.* Welcome to 280 Lake Caroline Drive, a private waterfront retreat where thoughtful updates, wide lake views, and true move-in readiness come together on one of Lake Caroline's most desirable lots. Set on more than half an acre with breathtaking 180-degree lake views and deep-water access, this beautifully maintained home delivers the feel of a year-round resort with the comfort and practicality of everyday living. A long paved driveway leads to the attached two-car garage, with generous additional parking for guests, boats, and recreational vehicles. Professionally landscaped grounds, extensive irrigation, and a fully fenced backyard create a setting designed for privacy, ease, and outdoor enjoyment. Inside, the home has been extensively updated across both levels. Highlights include remodeled bathrooms, updated flooring, newer kitchen appliances, a 2024 HVAC system, 2022 water heater, and a whole-house water filtration system installed in 2025. (Full List of Upgrades is in Documents!) Four large bay windows fill the home with natural light and frame spectacular water views from multiple rooms. The main level offers comfortable living spaces and direct access to an elevated three-season porch overlooking the lake. The primary suite includes its own private balcony, an ideal spot for morning coffee, sunrise views, and quiet evenings by the water. Two gas fireplaces add warmth and character on both levels. The finished lower level offers excellent flexibility for guests, extended stays, multigenerational living, remote work, hobbies, or entertaining. This level features a spacious family room, large bedroom, full bath, kitchenette, two bonus rooms, one currently used as a fourth bedroom, and additional storage space. Outdoor living is where this property truly shines. Enjoy an oversized lakeside deck, expansive lawn, attached storage shed, and private deep-water dock ready for boating, fishing, swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, and quiet days on the water. Active lawn care and HVAC service contracts convey to the new owner, adding convenience from day one. Lake Caroline offers an outstanding waterfront lifestyle with a 277-acre full-service lake, two sandy beaches, swimming pool with lifeguards, clubhouse, playgrounds, tennis courts, pickleball courts, basketball courts, fishing, boating, water skiing, wakeboarding, jet skiing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and year-round community events. This is an exceptional fit for a full-time residence, relocation to the area, second home, weekend retreat, or move-up waterfront purchase. Located within a gated, amenity-rich community just minutes from I-95, shopping, dining, and schools, 280 Lake Caroline Drive is a rare opportunity to own one of Lake Caroline's standout waterfront properties. Nothing left to do except move in and start enjoying lakefront living.
