Harrison home surrounded by deep water

This estate on Chickamauga Lake in Harrison is what listing agent Linda Brock of Prudential Realty Center.com calls "Lakeshore Country." The home is part of a small community on lush Lakeshore Drive surrounded by year-round deep water < "big water" in Brock's words.

The well-designed floor plan manages to bring views of the satin water to every room in the house. The home's shore-facing back is sheathed in a three-story wall of windows, allowing even landlubbers to enjoy the water every day.

"It's probably one of the absolute best plans to capture the water," Brock said. "The view has just held people from the moment they walk in." The family room and kitchen, open to each other, are decorated with neutral colors that don't distract from the vast water views. Soaring ceilings and skylights help to bring in the lake's sunshine, which bathes the creamy white farmhouse-style kitchen cabinets and expanse after expanse of light tile and carpet in its glow. A long back deck invites visitors out to the water.

Marvin Integrity brand windows, trimmed with wood inside and vinyl out, thrive in waterfront weather, as does the home's brick construction.

The handsome master bathroom offers his and hers vanities, a walk-in shower and jetted tub. A four-car garage offers plenty of space for all the cars in the family plus water equipment.

"It's a beautiful, undisturbed setting," Brock said, adding that it's also convenient to Enterprise South, the airport, Hamilton Place Mall and downtown Chattanooga. She said golfers will enjoy the home's proximity to Bear Trace at Harrison Bay and Black Creek Golf Course.
