Privately nestled on approximately 13 lush, meticulously landscaped acres, this one-of-a-kind property feels less like a residence and more like a living work of art. Every view is picturesque, every detail feels intentional, and every corner of the grounds offers another unforgettable moment. Quite simply, this is the kind of magical retreat that belongs in the pages of a magazine. The main residence is beautifully sophisticated yet wonderfully warm, blending timeless mountain character with fresh, on-trend finishes. Shiplap-clad walls and ceilings, dramatic contrasting beams, thoughtfully selected lighting, gorgeous decor, and rich natural textures create interiors that feel both refined and completely at home within the surrounding landscape. High-end appliances elevate the beautifully appointed kitchen, while gracious living and gathering spaces invite long meals, meaningful conversations, and relaxed evenings beside one of the home's three wood-burning fireplaces. A thoughtfully designed primary suite, as well as two well-designed guest bedrooms, cap off one-level-living perfection. Outside, the property unfolds like a private botanical sanctuary. Mature landscaping stretches in every direction, creating an ever-changing tapestry of color, texture, and natural beauty. Peaceful nature trails wind through the acreage, offering endless opportunities to explore, reconnect, and enjoy the quiet serenity of the land. A beautifully crafted stacked-stone firepit provides the perfect setting for cool mountain evenings, while the open-air carport and pavilion offer a versatile space for entertaining, outdoor dining, celebrations, or simply relaxing beneath the stars. The magic continues at the property's Lake Laceola shoreline, where an exceptional boathouse offers far more than convenient lake access. Thoughtfully divided between covered pontoon storage and beautifully finished, heated and cooled space, the boathouse becomes a destination of its own. Shiplap accents and a fourth wood-burning fireplace transform the climate-controlled portion into an enchanting lakeside retreat---perfect for reading, entertaining, watching the water, or spending cozy evenings beside the fire. It is an extraordinary setting where days begin with coffee by the lake and end beneath a canopy of stars. Residents of the Lake Laceola community also enjoy access to a welcoming clubhouse and swimming pool, adding even more opportunity for recreation, relaxation, and connection. Additional improvements enhance the property's remarkable versatility, including a detached two-car garage with heated and cooled finished space above, offering endless possibilities for an office, studio, recreation area, or private retreat.

Everywhere you turn, there is another beautiful vignette, another peaceful place to sit, and another reminder of how exceptional this property truly is. Rarely does a property offer such an extraordinary combination of acreage, privacy, lakefront living, refined design, mature landscaping, and carefully curated outdoor spaces. 152 Mountain Streams Drive is so much more than a lakefront residence; it is a soulful sanctuary, a private retreat, and a legacy property where inspired design and breathtaking nature exist in perfect harmony. Serene, spectacular, and utterly unforgettable---this property is pure magic.
