9421 Dogwood Drive, Rockville

There are places that simply hold you, and this is one of them. Tucked away on a private peninsula with nearly 200 feet of shoreline on Raccoon Lake, this extraordinary custom retreat is the kind of place where mornings begin with sunlight dancing across the water, evenings end around the fire, and every window frames a view worth lingering over. Surrounded by water on three sides, the home offers panoramic lake views, exceptional privacy, and a sense of serenity from the moment you arrive. Custom-crafted in 2017, the home's architecture blends timeless craftsmanship with thoughtful design. Reclaimed Indiana barn beams accent the striking staircase, while a custom feature wall and range hood were handcrafted from timber harvested directly from the property, bringing the landscape indoors. Pella windows fill the home with natural light, Castle Combe hand-scraped engineered hardwood floors extend throughout the main level, and nearly every room captures a unique lake view. Designed with an open, flowing layout, the main living spaces seamlessly connect indoors and out. The beautifully appointed kitchen features artisan tile, custom cabinetry, quartzite countertops, Viking appliances, and finishes that complement the setting. The primary suite is a private sanctuary. Wake each morning to shimmering water just beyond the windows, then retreat to the adjoining four-season room, where a dramatic floor-to-ceiling plaster fireplace and walls of glass create the perfect place to begin or end the day. Expansive upper and lower composite decks invite gathering, entertaining, or simply unwinding as the light changes across the lake. Every detail, from the handcrafted materials to the intentional placement of each window, was designed to celebrate the property's extraordinary setting. More than a lake home, this is a place where life naturally slows, memories are made, and every season is enjoyed from one of Raccoon Lake's most remarkable waterfront settings.
