These two-story homes range from approximately 1,700 to 1,900 square feet, offering three bedrooms and two-and-a-half bathrooms in thoughtfully designed layouts. The contemporary architectural style includes covered lanais specifically positioned to capitalize on the stunning lake vistas, while the rear-garage configuration ensures charming streetscapes with minimal visual clutter from vehicles. Each home is designed for modern living with an emphasis on both indoor comfort and outdoor enjoyment.
