Tucked away at the end of a scenic gravel road, this beautifully remodeled, pet-free lakefront retreat feels like your own private escape in the trees. From the moment you arrive, you’ll be drawn in by the home’s warm, upscale design—hardwood floors, soaring vaulted ceilings, and dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows that frame peaceful lake and forest views. Step outside and you’ll discover what summer dreams are made of: a private sandy beach on the warmer, quieter side of the lake, plus complimentary kayaks and stand-up paddleboards for carefree days on the water. With 3,000 square feet spread across three thoughtfully designed levels, there’s plenty of room for families and friends to relax, reconnect, and make memories together. The lower level offers a fun and flexible hangout space—perfect for teens or game nights—with a dining table, pool table, cozy entertainment area, and gas stove. A full bathroom, laundry room, and direct access to a private patio with a hammock complete the space, just steps from your 120 feet of private shoreline. The main living level is the heart of the home, filled with sunlight and lake views. Gather around the gas fireplace, unwind in the inviting living area, or head out to the furnished deck for fresh air and lake breezes. The fully equipped kitchen features granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, making it easy to prepare everything from casual breakfasts to memorable family dinners. Fire up the gas grill for an alfresco meal, then let the dishwasher handle cleanup while you enjoy board games or movie nights. A convenient mudroom provides plenty of space for coats, boots, and lake gear. Upstairs, a cozy loft invites quiet moments with a book from the private library or a spin in the Papasan chair. The serene sleeping area features an A-frame ceiling, skylight, and a spa-like bathroom with a jetted tub and walk-in shower—perfect for unwinding after a day outdoors. Whether you’re cooling off with central air on warm afternoons, roasting marshmallows around the firepit at night, shooting hoops in the driveway, or tossing a game of cornhole by the lake, this home offers something for everyone. And if work or school calls, reliable high-speed WiFi makes it easy to stay connected—without missing a moment of lakeside bliss. Due to severe owner allergies, pets are not allowed at this property. Thank you for your understanding.

About the neighborhood
Nestled along the quieter, private side of Lake Anna, offers a peaceful, nature-filled setting ideal for guests seeking relaxation and privacy. This area is known for its calm waters, wooded surroundings, and slower pace—perfect for swimming, kayaking, paddleboarding, and unwinding away from the busier public side of the lake. The neighborhood feels tucked away and serene, with homes spaced out among mature trees that provide a true “escape to the lake” atmosphere. Wildlife sightings are common, and evenings are especially tranquil, making it a great spot for stargazing, campfires, and enjoying the sounds of nature. Access to the home is via a long gravel road, which adds to the secluded charm of the location. Guests are kindly asked to travel at a slow, cautious speed while driving the gravel road to ensure safety, reduce dust, and respect neighboring properties. While the setting feels remote, you’re still within a reasonable drive of local marinas, dining options, and Lake Anna essentials, making it easy to balance convenience with privacy. This hidden corner of Lake Anna is perfect for guests looking to unplug, recharge, and enjoy the lake at its most peaceful.
