1031 Millers Lake Drive

Set on a waterfront lot in Jennings Mill, this four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath brick traditional gives you a backyard most people only get on vacation. Manicured landscaping and mature trees frame a paver walkway to the front door, arriving at a classic brick facade with true curb appeal.

Beyond the house, the backyard opens into lush gardens, with stone paths winding along the water's edge and tracing the shoreline past a wrought-iron-fenced terrace, where a fountain runs across the lake and the far shore stays wooded and quiet. It's the rare in-town setting where you can sit on Spanish terracotta tile in a screened porch -- ceiling fans turning, stained glass overhead -- and actually hear the water instead of a neighbor's television.

Inside, the kitchen has been freshly painted with new countertops, all working around the original glass-front cabinetry and hardwood floors. It opens straight to a breakfast area with garden views and to the main living spaces beyond -- a formal living room centered on a brick fireplace, a sitting room, and a two-story foyer with a staircase that sets the tone the moment you walk in.

This is a house for anyone who wants room to spread out -- hosting, working from home, weekends with family or friends -- without giving up walkability to Jennings Mill's pool, tennis, and golf, or an easy drive into town. Four bedrooms upstairs, three and a half baths throughout, and a lake view that changes with the season.

Welcome home to Millers Lake.
