Property Description

Multigenerational Retreat in Lake Holiday - In-Law Suite & Heated Workshop Welcome to 1457 Nova Road, a spacious 5-bedroom, 3.5-bath home offering over 3,200 square feet of living space in the heart of the Lake Holiday community. This one has a little bit of everything - room to spread out, space for extended family, and enough garage and workshop capacity to make any hobbyist or collector take notice. Main-Level In-Law Suite One of the standout features here is the private main-level suite, complete with its own full bath and direct patio access. It's a setup that works beautifully for extended family, long-term guests, or anyone who'd rather avoid the stairs altogether offering real independence while still keeping everyone connected to the main living areas. For multigenerational households, this kind of layout is genuinely hard to come by, and it adds long-term flexibility that pays off no matter how your family's needs change over time. Expansive, Light-Filled Interior Walk in and you're greeted by a dramatic two-story living room, where hardwood floors, a fireplace, and custom wood ceiling details give the space a warm, elevated feel. The kitchen is well equipped for everyday life and entertaining alike, with abundant cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a center island that flows naturally into the dining and family rooms. A first-floor laundry room adds a practical touch that busy households will appreciate, and upstairs, a bright loft overlooking the living room below offers flexible space - perfect as a home office, reading nook, or quiet lounge. The primary suite feels like a true retreat, with double sinks, a separate shower, and a relaxing whirlpool tub. The remaining upstairs bedrooms are comfortable and well-sized, giving family members or guests room to settle in. Down in the finished lower level, you'll find a fifth bedroom along with an 18' x 12' recreation and media room - a versatile space that's ready to become a movie room, home gym, game room, or whatever fits your lifestyle best. Heated Workshop & Garage Space For anyone who's dreamed of having real workshop space, this property delivers. There's a heated 30' x 22' workshop and garage - with gas heat, electric, and water already in place offering year-round flexibility for boats, classic cars, woodworking, fabrication, or a serious hobby studio. Beyond that, the attached, insulated 2.5-car garage offers everyday convenience with direct interior access, and a matching 16' x 12' storage shed keeps lawn equipment and seasonal items out of the way. A newly paved driveway rounds it out, with plenty of room for multiple vehicles, trailers, or watercraft. Outdoor Living Outside, the home offers just as much to enjoy. Two covered porches, an elevated deck, and multiple concrete patios provide plenty of options for relaxing or entertaining, while a dedicated fire pit area sets the scene for evenings with family and friends. The fully fenced, freshly landscaped yard adds privacy and a polished finish to the whole property. Lake Holiday Lifestyle While this home isn't waterfront, it still offers full access to everything Lake Holiday has to offer including a private, 277-acre all-sports lake for boating, fishing, water skiing, tubing, and kayaking. Add in three sandy beaches, a marina, a dog park, a skate park, a zip line, and a full calendar of community events, and it's easy to see why Lake Holiday remains one of the area's most popular places to call home. Altogether, this property brings together multigenerational flexibility, exceptional workshop and storage space, and an active lake community lifestyle - a combination that's genuinely tough to find. Homes like this don't come along often, so if it sounds like a fit, it's worth taking the time to see it in person. Schedule your private showing today.
