A Lake Cumberland retreat with a panoramic view AND a boat slip?! Now that's a big deal! At 281 Shady Rest Road, you can start the morning with coffee and a lake view, spend the day out on the water, and pull right into your slip at Island Ramp Boat Club, just behind Wolf Creek Marina. Then it's just a short drive home to relax in the hot tub while taking in the quiet of the countryside. If you've been holding out for a Lake Cumberland home that checks all the boxes, here it is. Inside this custom home, you'll find 3 bedrooms, 3 full baths, and 2,013 square feet of finished living space. The kitchen has cypress cabinets, granite countertops, a large island with barstools, dining table, and a pantry, so there's plenty of room to spread out when everybody comes in from the lake. Slate flooring, custom woodwork, five cedar-lined closets, and three fireplaces give the home plenty of character. And when the leaves come down, the big windows open up to a panoramic view of Lake Cumberland. The views, custom woodworking, high-end finishes, and boat slip are what truly set this home apart while making it feel distinctive AND comfortable. For the sellers, it has been a place to slow down, enjoy changing seasons, gather with family and friends, and appreciate the beauty of Lake Cumberland from the comfort of home. Thoughtful improvements were made along the way: crawl space encapsulation, double-pane door upgrades, replaced the back door entrance walkway with long-lasting composite decking, added a storage shed with extra parking, and installed a hot tub in 2025. There's also an attached carport, landscaping with magnolias, lavender, and peonies, and about 360 square feet of unfinished space on the lower level that is perfect for extra storage. There is an additional 1 acre wooded lot directly across the street that has the potential to build a barn for storing your boat or another home site! The annual membership for the Island Ramp Boat Club is only $250! Given the lake view, quality finishes, boat slip, and location, this property offers a rare combination of lifestyle, comfort, and long term value.
