Property Description

Welcome to Prairie Crossing - one of the nation's most celebrated conservation communities - where this stunning Watts model at 860 Blazing Star Road delivers five bedrooms, three beautifully finished above-grade levels, and breathtaking unobstructed views of native prairie and the shimmering waters of Lake Leopold from your very own front door. Thoughtfully maintained and move-in ready, the home's timeless Prairie Crossing architecture radiates warmth and character throughout. Just off the kitchen, a beautifully appointed butler's pantry with a wet bar serves as both an entertainer's dream and the perfect dedicated coffee station. Step out onto the deluxe second-story porch and those sweeping prairie and lake views expand even further - stunning in every season. Two of the bedrooms open directly onto a private second-story balcony, offering a true bird's eye view of the neighborhood and the glistening waters of Lake Leopold - waking up here is something special every single morning. The finished third floor is a showstopper: rich hardwood floors, a full bathroom, and wall-to-wall natural light frame some of the most gorgeous lake views in all of Prairie Crossing - ideal as a recreation room, guest suite, or home office. Outside, the yard backs to protected greenspace and a park - a rare and peaceful setting that extends your living space into nature. Miles of walking and biking trails, organic farmland, and protected open space round out a lifestyle that is truly in a class of its own. This is more than a home - it's Prairie Crossing living at its absolute finest.
