A rare opportunity to build a fully permitted lakefront home on 10.8 private, lush forested acres with 320 feet of west-facing low/no-bank waterfront on Silver Lake. The prepared building site is nestled among mature trees, offering privacy, beautiful lake views and a front-row seat to evening sunsets throughout the year. Plans by Highline Construction feature a thoughtfully designed 2,395-square-foot home with 3 bedrooms and 2.25 baths. The main level includes a spacious primary suite with walk-in closet, while upstairs offers 2 additional bedrooms, a full bath and versatile bonus room. More than 450 square feet of covered decking is designed to overlook the lake and surrounding landscape. All the hard work has been done: septic is permitted, surveys are available, and a transformer with power pole and meter are in place. A shared well is on-site, and the well pump house was recently refurbished. Complete the collaboration with the design/build team at Highline Construction to add your personal touches and create the ultimate dream retreat. Close proximity to year-round recreation and Mount Baker activities.
