This '70s gem, designed by architect William Edward Mims, is tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Lake Park. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath treehouse-inspired retreat pairs laid-back 1970s soul with thoughtful updates. Inside, find a statement fireplace, a cozy loft, and a kitchen with views of the backyard trees. Outside, an expansive deck, rustic screened porch, hot tub, and fire pit set the stage for a backyard that has hosted garden parties and acoustic concerts. A two-car detached garage adds room for boats, bikes, or a workshop. As the seller says, "this house has excellent mojo with a variety of indoor and outdoor dwelling spaces!" Terrific additional storage area in the walk-in crawl space. Nature lovers, bring your paddle boards, boats and bicycles! This home is minutes from Hamilton Creek Park, with its sailing and paddle marina, boat launch, and miles of wooded mountain bike trails. Cook Recreation Area and Seven Points, with its swim beach and two-lane ramp, are a short drive via New Hope Road. Long Hunter State Park rounds out the hiking options. Fun fact: Architect William Edward Mims was a recognized Taliesin Fellow and trained in Frank Lloyd Wright's legendary organic architecture apprenticeship program.
