Stunning waterfront home in Johnston listed for sale

JOHNSTON – Wow, is all he can say of this listing, says Scott McGee of a waterfront home on Slack’s Reservoir in Johnston.

“What a sweet waterfront,” said McGee, of RE/MAX Properties, The Stearns McGee Team, who is listing the property.

At 16 Countryside Drive, the 3,542-square-foot home on .7 acres of land, with three bedrooms and four bathrooms, is listed at $1.499 million. It comes with private beach, finished walk-out lower level, granite bar, and built-in grilling area.

“Missing absolutely nothing, check out this beautiful waterfront 3-4 bedroom ranch on Slack’s Reservoir,” states the listing. “Enjoy stunning water views and exceptional outdoor living with paver patios, a built-in grilling area, propane fire pit with seating for six to eight, private beach, your own boat dock and boat launch, plus lush landscaping, and sprinklers.”

Inside, it adds, “the open concept living room flows into a high-end kitchen with quartz countertops. The primary suite offers sweeping reservoir views from the room, the deck and even from the soaking tub. The finished walk-out lower level features a pellet stove, granite bar, a half bath, and a spacious guest bedroom with walk-in closet and private full bath. Tongue-and-groove ceilings under the deck add warmth and character. Additional highlights include a Generac generator and high-efficiency Buderus boiler. This is more than a home. It’s a waterfront lifestyle and retreat.”

First built in 1961, the home has been upgraded numerous times and with great care since.
