On the shores of Lake Ariana is a delightful surprise blending southern charm, a modern art gallery and the livability of a completely handicap-accessible home. A favorite will be the 2000 sf ft 3-sided wrap-around porch, cooled by lake breezes and six ceiling fans: enjoy your sunrise coffee or evening cocktail. Jaw-dropping entry will take your amazed eyes to the full length house gallery, 8’ x 100’ soaring to 24’ cathedral ceiling, stylish low voltage gallery lighting and impressive ‘up’ lighting.
