ABOUT THIS HOME

Located on the only island on Geist you have to take a bridge over, this 5 bed, 5.5 bath showstopper sits right on the water with lake views from every single room. Soaring 12+ foot ceilings, resort-style amenities (hello, pool + basketball court!), and designer details throughout make this home equal parts luxury and lifestyle. Whether you're entertaining a crowd or soaking up a quiet sunset, this place brings the wow from the moment you walk in. From the moment you step through the dramatic, up-lit entryway-adorned with detailed trim work, elegant molding, and a show-stopping crystal chandelier above a grand staircase-you'll feel the difference. The main level is built for entertaining with two sophisticated living areas, two fireplaces, and a designer kitchen featuring a spacious island, bonus dining space, and seamless flow into the heart of the home. Upstairs, the expansive primary suite is a private retreat with a spa-inspired bath, double-headed walk-in shower, soaking tub, and a dream-worthy oversized closet. You'll also find two additional bedrooms each with their own full bathroom, and a loft, PLUS a tucked-away guest wing with its own bedroom, bath, and dual living spaces-ideal for in-laws, teens, or visitors who might never leave. And just when you think it can't get better... the walk-out basement brings the fun! There's a full kitchen, bar, game/entertainment zone, and even a soundproof recording studio ready for your next big hit (or to convert into the ultimate home gym). Step outside to a half basketball court, a gorgeous pool, and those lake views. This Geist stunner has it all-luxury, fun, and plenty of space to live your best life. Come see it before someone else dives in first!
