Welcome to Dogwood Lake House, a charming 20th-century Colonial Revival with deeded lake access on Highland Lake. Tucked under a canopy of ornamental dogwoods and hydrangeas, this cozy four bedroom home overlooks Highland Lake, and features lake views from almost every window. At the heart of the home, a striking wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, surrounded by wood paneling, hardwood floors, and sunlit windows, flooding the home with light. The main floor flows seamlessly through arched doorways into a spacious formal dining room lined with bookshelves and double paned windows. The expansive kitchen’s nostalgic red-and-white checkerboard floors add vintage character while maintaining modern functionality. Just off the kitchen, a small hallway leads to the a full powder room, a study, and a windowed laundry room. Spanning the back of the home, a spacious sunroom opens up to a sprawling multi-leveled terrace which overlooks the lake. Upstairs, a balanced four-bedroom layout provides airy, well-proportioned rooms. A full attic and a full walkout basement expand the home’s flexibility for storage, recreation, or additional living space.
The property itself is a horticultural treasure. The prior owner planted a remarkable collection of dogwoods, magnolias, hydrangeas, and rare imported roses, creating gardens that bloom in succession and transform with the seasons. A detached two-car garage with electric service offers further opportunity, easily converted into a studio, guest cottage, or workshop. Located within the highly desirable Highland Lake community with no HOA restrictions, this property seamlessly blends historic character with a lakeside living. From morning walks among flowering trees to afternoons on the lake and evenings by the fire, this home offers the perfect balance of beauty, comfort, and country lifestyle.
