**A Tour of Your Retreat:**
The chef’s kitchen at Oasis is a dream, featuring a new island with seating for four and top-of-the-line appliances, including a gas stove. The eat-in dining area offers seating for six and provides amazing views of the pool and the lake—perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or a family meal. Whether you're whipping up a quick snack or preparing a full dinner, the kitchen is fully stocked to accommodate your needs and make hosting a breeze.
Just steps away, the open-concept living room boasts large windows that offer stunning views of the pool, dock, and newly installed beach. Relax on the comfy new couches while enjoying a movie or the game on the large 72" TV. Adjacent to the living area is the formal dining room, where a large table with seating for 10 ensures everyone can gather together for meals and conversation.
The main level of the home also includes three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a half bath, and a laundry room. The primary bedroom features a king-sized bed and a newly configured en suite bath with a large, tiled walk-in shower that includes a rain shower head and a separate sauna. For a truly relaxing experience, crank up the heat in the sauna for some quiet, rejuvenating time alone.
The remaining two bedrooms on the main level share a hall bath and feature a queen bed and two twin beds, respectively.
An additional upper level has been added to the home, creating a spacious open room that features three queen beds, a cozy seating area, and a full bath. This area is perfect for teens or young adults who want their own space to relax and unwind, though it’s first come, first served!
The lower level is an entertainer’s dream. It features a full kitchen with all-new appliances, a small desk area for checking emails, and a comfortable sitting area with a couch, two chairs, and another 72" TV, perfect for kids to enjoy Netflix or play on the gaming console. The lower level also offers two bedrooms: a queen bedroom and a bunk room with two twin-over-full bunk beds—perfect for kids to “camp out” together! There’s also a full and half bath on this level, ensuring everyone’s comfort.
The garage has been converted into a fantastic new game room, complete with a ping pong table, a love seat, and a full-size refrigerator—ideal for storing snacks and drinks for all the fun you'll have.
**The Outdoor Oasis:**
What truly sets **Oasis at Ballycastle** apart are the incredible outdoor spaces. The backyard is an absolute paradise, offering limitless options for relaxation and enjoyment. New 3-foot pavers lead guests from the house to various outdoor areas designed for ultimate comfort.
First, you’ll find the newly installed 15' beach right at the water’s edge, perfect for lounging by the lake or dipping your toes in the water. From here, you’ll face an exciting decision—head to the pool and hot tub area, complete with kitchen and seating, or make your way to the dock for some lakeside fun!
If you choose the pool area, you’ll find an outdoor kitchen fully equipped with a grill, stove, fridge, and dishwasher—everything you need to complete your meal while enjoying the surroundings. To stay cool on warm days, a large industrial-size fan keeps the air fresh. Alternatively, turn on the screen porch fireplace and relax on the large sectional or lounge chairs while watching the sunset. The kitchen area also includes games like corn hole and life-size Connect Four for some friendly competition. Plus, a large TV is set up for watching the big game while overlooking the lake. A half bath in this area ensures that guests have everything they need close by.
Finally, let’s not forget that Oasis is a lake house! Head down to the large, multi-level dock, where you'll find all the lake toys you could need: a kayak, paddleboard, and life jackets for everyone. The dock also features catamaran netting, perfect for lounging lakeside or taking a quick nap while listening to the water.
Leaving Oasis at Ballycastle will be the hardest part of your retreat, as this stunning property offers everything you need for relaxation, entertainment, and making memories with loved ones. We are confident that your stay here will be unforgettable!
