Experience lake living in this beautifully maintained 5-bedroom, 2-bath, two-story home on Lake Sara. With plenty of room for family and guests, this property is designed for making the most of time at the lake. Step outside onto the partially wraparound deck, an inviting space for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or relaxing after a day on the water. The dock features new boards installed in 2026, and the home is being sold fully furnished for an easy, turnkey transition. Previously used as a VRBO, this versatile property is ready to serve as a full-time residence, weekend retreat, or vacation getaway. Meticulously maintained and ready to enjoy, all that’s missing is your next day at the lake.
