## Description

### Agent Description
Discover the beauty of Lake Montauk from this impressive lakefront estate, offering sweeping water views and generous living spaces throughout. With 4 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and multiple bonus rooms, this home provides exceptional flexibility for luxurious coastal living. The main level features a large open kitchen, living, and dining area, each room showcasing stunning views of the lake. Two versatile bonus rooms-ideal for a den and home office-add convenience and functionality. A full bathroom and a laundry room complete the first floor. This level also includes a spacious attached garage, offering ease and practicality for year-round living. Below, a full basement provides substantial storage space and presents an excellent opportunity to be finished in the future for additional living area if desired. The upper level is anchored by a serene primary suite overlooking the water, offering breathtaking vistas. Three additional guest bedrooms and two guest bathrooms provide ample space for visitors. Three extra rooms on this level offer endless possibilities-use them as a media room, gym, or studio. Step outside to an expansive patio, featuring a covered section with an outdoor fireplace, perfect for year-round entertaining. An outdoor shower adds a classic coastal touch. A private, easy path leads directly to the beach, making it effortless to launch kayaks, paddle boards, and more. A private mooring completes this exceptional waterfront offering, providing convenient access for boating enthusiasts.
