Property Description
Welcome to 322 Lake Caroline Drive, where every day feels like a vacation. Perfectly positioned on approximately 95 feet of protected shoreline with deep water, a rebuilt private dock complete with an expanded sun deck, and panoramic lake views, this exceptional waterfront home offers the lifestyle so many buyers dream about but rarely find. Located within the gated community of Lake Caroline, just minutes from I-95 and conveniently situated between Richmond and Washington, D.C., this beautifully maintained home combines peaceful waterfront living with an easy commute and outstanding community amenities. Completely reimagined in 2003, this home underwent an extensive renovation and expansion, transforming nearly every aspect of the property. Taken down to the studs, it was thoughtfully redesigned with a new floor plan, two additions, new drywall, insulation, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and quality finishes throughout. The result is a home that offers the charm of an established waterfront setting with the features and functionality buyers expect today. Every improvement was thoughtfully designed to maximize natural light, capture stunning lake views, and create comfortable spaces for everyday living and entertaining. Rich hardwood floors, soaring ceilings, custom architectural columns, recessed lighting, and five skylights flood the home with natural light, creating a bright, open atmosphere that immediately welcomes you inside. Additional features include Andersen 400 Series windows and doors, a high-efficiency two-stage Trane HVAC system with an air cleaner installed in 2018, a new water heater in 2024, whole-house surge protection, surround sound throughout the home and rear deck, a separate laundry room, handicap accessibility, and a well-maintained crawlspace. Designed for both everyday living and entertaining, the custom kitchen is sure to impress. Featuring beautiful custom cabinetry, abundant countertop space, a center island with a prep sink, double ovens, a new cooktop, and thoughtful storage throughout, it's a space that will make even the most discerning home chef feel right at home. The spacious living room flows seamlessly to the screened porch, where you can enjoy your morning coffee while taking in peaceful lake views. The primary suite also offers direct access to the porch, allowing you to wake each morning to the beauty of the water. The primary bath features a relaxing soaking tub, separate walk-in shower, and generous space to unwind. Outdoor living is truly the centerpiece of this property. Spend evenings on the expansive rear deck overlooking the lake or head down on your golf cart to the private dock, completely rebuilt and expanded in 2012 to include a large sun deck. Whether you enjoy boating, fishing, kayaking, paddleboarding, swimming, or simply relaxing by the water, this property is ready to support every lakefront adventure. With approximately 95 feet of rip-rapped shoreline and deep water, you'll enjoy both beauty and peace of mind for years to come. Life at Lake Caroline extends well beyond your own backyard. Residents enjoy a 277-acre recreational lake, two sandy beaches, a swimming pool, a clubhouse, tennis, pickleball, and basketball courts, playgrounds, boating, fishing, and other water activities, and an active community with multiple events throughout the year. Whether you're searching for your forever home, a weekend escape, or the waterfront lifestyle you've always imagined, 322 Lake Caroline Drive offers a rare opportunity to own one of the community's finest lakefront properties. The setting is extraordinary. The lifestyle is waiting. Simply move in and start making memories on the lake.
