The Novel Nest at Abbey Springs
Summary:
Located on Geneva Lake’s southern shore, guests of The Novel Nest at Abbey Springs will get to enjoy an abundance of onsite amenities such as the private beach, pools, a championship golf course, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, and onsite dining venues. You’ll also be conveniently located for quick trips to and from Fontana-On-Geneva-Lake, a popular destination for locals and tourists alike offering boutique shopping, numerous eateries, and outdoor recreation experiences.
The Space:
Step inside to the main living room, where a cozy couch, loveseat, smart TV, and indoor fireplace create a warm, welcoming hub for your stay. The home opens into a large, inviting kitchen with warm cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and counter seating for four—ideal for cooking together or enjoying your morning coffee from the drip maker. A separate dining table for eight makes shared meals feel special.
On the main level, a stately library with its own sitting area awaits, perfect for unwinding with a good book. Wander into the lower-level family room and sink into the sectional couch for movie nights, or head to the sunroom—complete with a table for four and a foosball table—for relaxed fun and all-season lounging.
Outside, two upper-level deck spaces offer the perfect mix of dining and relaxing: one with comfortable seating and a table for four, and another with a grill and a table for six—great for outdoor dinners. As the sun sets, gather around the fire pit with surrounding seating for stargazing, s’mores, and quiet conversation. This home offers room to spread out, come together, and make each moment feel like a true escape.
