Council House | Lake front living with private sandy beach!

3 Bedroom House in Council, Elizabethtown

Get a slice of peaceful lakefront living in this welcoming A frame home with spectacular views! Awake each morning to the sun rising over the lake, then fill the day playing on your own private sandy beach, kayaking, fishing, or birdwatching. Take a short walk to the deeper lake for a refreshing swim or go for hike at Bay Tree Lake State Park which is right around the corner. Whip up a fabulous meal in the large open kitchen and end the evening with s’mores by the fire and unbelievable stars!
This open concept A frame home offers sweeping vistas of the lake from the living, dining, kitchen and both first floor bedrooms. Relax in your king size bed and Egyptian cotton sheets or step out onto your private patio to enjoy the lakeside breeze. Both downstairs rooms have views and direct access to the beach and lake. Upstairs you’ll find a third bedroom with a twin trundle, day bed and full private bathroom. The couch also pulls out to a queen size bed so there’s plenty of space and 3 full bathrooms for a couple of families or a group of friends.
Enjoy fresh clean linen and towels, a fully equipped kitchen, coffee bar, Wi-Fi and cable tv, keyless entry, an assortment of games, outdoor fire pit, grill, kayaks, fishing poles, washer and dryer, and access to both community lakes, designated swimming area, boat ramps, tennis courts, and playground. Deep cleaned and sanitized before every stay.
No animals allowed.
Our lake is very shallow and great for younger kids to splash around in but if you're looking for deeper waters to swim in, it's best to head over to Bay Tree lake which is a 5 min walk (or 1 min drive) and has a deeper sandy-bottom designated swimming area.
This gated community offers 2 lakes, several boat launches for you to use, canals to explore, tennis courts and a playground.
And with restaurants and shopping centers only a 10-15 minute drive from the house you can still find the convenience you want. Great neighborhood for nature walks and bike rides. This home also provides ample parking.
The area
Located within 2 hours from the research triangle and only an hour from Fayetteville or Willmington, the Bay Tree Lake community is a hidden gem that will allow you to easily escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and find yourself feeling relaxed and rejuvenated.
Elizabethtown is a quick 15 min ride away with a quaint downtown, which includes restaurants and shops as well as the staples like WalMart and Food Lion. You can also find many wineries in the area as well. Our favorite is Cape Fear, where you’ll discover the largest collection of celebrity art while savoring your wine and a delicious meal. It’s also great for families as there’s animals to see and a large playground to enjoy.
There’s also ample hiking and exploring to be done at Bay Tree Lake State Park, Bladen Lakes State Forest, or Jones Lake State Park, which are all within a quick 5-15 min drive from the house.
And in the summer time more fun can be found at White Lake Water Park or picking blueberries at one of the nearby farms.
