Set along the shores of Lake Wawasee, Pier 224 presents a combination that is increasingly difficult to find: lake frontage paired with meaningful acreage, all anchored by a thoughtfully designed modern home.

11199 NE Wawasee Drive

5.01 Acres on 4 Parcels | 75′ of Lake Frontage | 4 Bed, 4.5 Bath, 6,038 Sq. Ft. Fully Furnished Main Residence | Heated Infinity Pool | ~2,169 Sq. Ft. Guest House | 60′ x 46′ Pole Barn | Detached 3-Car Heated Garage

Located in Syracuse, the property spans 75 feet of shoreline and 5.01 acres across four parcels. This balance of water access and usable land creates a setting that supports both immediate enjoyment and long-term flexibility.

Build in 2015 and offered fully furnished, the main residence spans more than 6,000 square feet, with 4 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and a half bath. Clean architectural lines and expansive floor to ceiling windows define the home, allowing natural light and lake views to shape the experience throughout the main living spaces. The layout connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas, creating an easy flow for both everyday living and entertaining.

The kitchen is anchored by a quartz island and complemented by stainless steel appliances, a wet bar, and a functional connection to the pantry and mudroom. From the main living area, sliding glass doors open directly to the lakeside patio, extending the living space outdoors.

The primary suite is positioned on the main level, offering privacy along with direct access to a deck overlooking the water. A walk-in closet with integrated laundry adds convenience, while an office or flex room on the main level provides additional versatility.

The walkout lower level includes three ensuite bedrooms and a secondary living space with fireplace. A defining feature of the home is the indoor and outdoor lounge, where glass overhead doors allow the space to open fully to the exterior during warmer months while remaining usable year round.

Outdoor living is centered around a heated infinity pool, fire feature, and outdoor kitchen, all oriented to capture sunset views across the lake. A private pier and sandy lake bottom support swimming, boating, and time on the water.

Beyond the shoreline, the property continues across the street with more than four additional acres of fenced, park-like grounds. This space introduces a level of flexibility rarely found on Lake Wawasee. A guest house offers over 2,000 square feet of finished living space, while a detached garage and heated pole barn provide ample room for storage, recreation, or hobby use.

The additional land allows the property to function in a variety of ways, whether as a private retreat, a place for gathering, or a long-term lakefront residence with room to evolve.

For those considering Lake Wawasee, Pier 224 offers a compelling combination of design, setting, and flexibility, brought together in a way that is not often available.
