Discover the rare opportunity to own a truly distinctive waterfront home on a 2.3 acre lot on the water at the North Lake at Lake Serene. Custom built and lovingly cared for by its original owner, this unique mid-century modern home combines timeless architectural character with an incredibly versatile floor plan, abundant natural light, and beautiful views of the lake. Set in a peaceful waterfront setting while remaining conveniently close to everything Hattiesburg has to offer, this property offers the best of both worlds--privacy, space, and lake living without giving up convenience. One of the home's most striking features is the abundance of natural light throughout the main living spaces. Large windows and thoughtfully designed spaces allow sunlight to fill the home while showcasing the beautiful lake views. The main living area features soaring ceilings, a fireplace, and expansive windows overlooking the water, creating a dramatic yet inviting gathering space. The open-concept design seamlessly connects the living room, kitchen, and eat-in kitchen area, making it easy to enjoy the views and natural surroundings from nearly every angle. A separate formal dining room provides additional space for entertaining and gatherings. The main-level primary suite offers both privacy and convenience, along with beautiful views of the lake. Upstairs, the home's unique design continues with a spacious landing perfect for a small sitting room that overlooks the living room below. Two large bedrooms and a shared bathroom provide comfortable accommodations for family members or guests, while the open overlook adds to the home's distinctive architectural appeal. The lower level offers an exceptional amount of flexibility and could be ideal for multigenerational living. A complete basement apartment includes its own kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom, creating a comfortable private living area separate from the main portion of the home. The basement also features a private exterior entrance, making it an excellent option for extended family, guests, a caregiver, or anyone who would benefit from a separate living space. Step outside onto the large deck extending across the entire back of the home and take in the peaceful lake setting. With plenty of room for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply relaxing, the deck becomes an extension of the home's living space and the perfect place to enjoy the natural beauty surrounding the property. The spacious garage offers plenty of room for vehicles, storage, hobbies, lake equipment, or all the extras that come with owning a property of this size. Meticulously cared for by its original owner, this is a home with a story, character, and a layout that offers possibilities far beyond the ordinary. Whether you're looking for a waterfront retreat, a home for a growing or multigenerational family, or simply more space and privacy while staying close to Hattiesburg's shopping, dining, medical facilities, schools, and entertainment, this property is truly special. With 2.3 acres, waterfront living, abundant natural light, distinctive mid-century modern architecture, soaring ceilings, a main-level primary suite, a complete basement apartment with private entrance, a large garage, and a location convenient to all that Hattiesburg has to offer, this is a rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind Lake Serene property.
