The wooded lakefront cabin is located on 40 acres at the end of a secluded and serene cove on Nolin Lake. It is the only home in the entire gated property, located just six miles from Wax Marina, and only nine miles from Mammoth Cave National Park.

From the gorgeous interior, step outside to the IPE exotic hardwood constructed deck to enjoy nearly 750 square feet of covered porch with built-in outdoor stone fireplace, gas grill, and outdoor dining table. Beautiful forested views surround you, and yet the gentle sloping path to your private dock on Nolin Lake is directly in front of the home. A swim ladder from the dock gives you access to the private cove, located directly across from a nature preserve, providing peace and quiet.

The first floor includes a spacious open floor-plan great room with a stone gas fireplace that looks up into a two-story cupola. Plenty of comfortable sofas surround the fireplace sitting areas. A large dining table is situated close to the kitchen, and provides ample space for a large gathering.

The granite countertop island is large enough for a sizable buffet, and has a five-burner gas cooktop and six barstools. The Chef's kitchen offers everything you will need, including a farmhouse sink, stainless steel appliances, and a stand-alone ice maker, dishes, silverware, and glassware for 24, pots and pans, prep and cooking equipment utensils, serving platters and bowls, small appliances and pantry staples.

Down the hall from the great room, the first floor bedroom with king bed is situated to view the trees from the beautiful bay windows. A two-sink vanity and tiled walk-in shower, two closets, as well as a private entry to the covered deck await the guests that occupy this suite.

Just off the kitchen, a pantry with pull-out shelves, mudroom/laundry, and a half bath complete the first floor.

Up the stairs, with another impressive view of the estate, there are two Queen bedrooms with a jack and jill bathroom. The bathroom has a double-sink vanity that is separated from the bath/shower combo and toilet, giving privacy for multiple guests. A pack and play is available in the closet.

Let the fun begin downstairs with a pool table, wet bar with beverage refrigerator, large screen television and plenty of plush seating to watch a movie or the big game! Over 250 DVDs await movie buffs. Indoor time can be filled with the array of board games, cards and toys. A second full-size refrigerator is located in the storage area.

An additional king bedroom with the same footprint as the first floor bedroom is located down the hall from the basement living area. Here, another two-sink vanity, tiled shower and two closets, as well as a private entry to the covered patio await the guests of this suite.

Just steps away from the main home, a wonderfully appointed bunkhouse with two additional bedrooms, kitchenette with sink and beverage refrigerator, a full bathroom with shower/bath and living area can occupy additional guests, including all of the kids and teenagers. They will have a ping-pong table, full size arcade game with over 1,000 games, large screen television, sectional sofa and gaming chairs to immerse them at night or anytime they need a break from outdoor activities. The bunk room has three sets of bunk beds and a trundle, for a total of five twins and two full size. The upstairs loft bedroom has a queen size bed, and is perfect for adults that want to supervise and sleep in the same home as the children.

The entire home is outfitted with bed linens, comforters, plush blankets and comfortable & supportive mattresses. Look forward to 100-percent cotton towels in the bathrooms.
