There's nothing else like it in Markland and the moment you pull up, you'll know it. This Cornerstone custom built home is pure French Provincial: a steep, multi-pitched roofline, tall arched windows, board-and-batten shutters, & a standing-seam metal portico over the entry. It's the kind of elevation you slow down for. In a community of beautiful homes, this one stands in a class by itself. And it has the setting to match. The home is positioned to take in the entire unobstructed lake, not a sliver, not an angle, the full width of the water & it faces due west. It's the one thing a home can't add later: a true, full, west-facing lakefront that can't be built, bought next door, or ever taken away. Step through the double glass doors & the lake is already yours, framed dead-center through a wall of triple sliders, fitted with electric shades, that runs the width of the great room. The kitchen is built to be used & shown off in equal measure: a professional Wolf gas range, a Frigidaire Professional built-in refrigerator, a big quartz island with a farmhouse sink with seating for 5, & lighted glass-front cabinets. A dedicated beverage station adds a dual-zone wine fridge, a bar sink with its own reverse-osmosis filtration, & a walk-in pantry just beyond. A custom banquette with built-in storage tucks into the breakfast nook, facing the water, & a gas fireplace anchors the family room.nThe split floor plan is as smart as it is comfortable: the master's suite is privately set apar
