Basswood! Sea grass limestone and white oak floors (with a break for wool in a guest suite or two) run throughout the more than 11,000 square feet of this home.  A main floor master suite on the east end of the home is warmed by one of the home’s five masonry fireplaces. If you sit in the great room, your gaze isn’t quite sure where to wander. You could find the fireplace, with it’s cut-limestone surround. Or you could look to the obvious, through the huge lakeside windows and onto that divine lake. Or up, to the white oak walls and Douglas Fir balcony. Or away from the lake and the fire, and onto the serene driveway side, with that steel atrium and the custom fixtures that illuminate. In spite of these views, this home isn’t really something you see as it is something you feel. $10,995,000

Indian Hills!  At 611 Aweogon, what I’m offering here is a five bedroom, four bath, turn key lake experience. There is that unique proximity, but also rare separation of living space which is vitally important to the quality of life of the inhabitants. Want to entertain in the wide-open kitchen/living room? Do it, it’s there for that reason. There’s a screened porch affording views of the lovely back yard, and a sprawling master suite with vaulted ceilings and private deck. At the lakefront you’ll be delighted to find a life-guard on duty during the summer months. But the lakefront and the bedrooms and those four baths are distracting us from the one thing that makes Aweogon so unique: that effortless event that is the life affirming, lazy weekend stroll. $920,000
