Welcome to The Overlook, your perfect home away from home in the Galena Territory.

 

This contemporary three-bedroom, two-and-a-half-bathroom home is just a short drive to the Owner's Club and 7 miles to Downtown Galena, making it a prime resort location. The upper level boasts an open floor plan with a spacious and bright kitchen dining room, a lovely screened porch, and a deck overlooking the peaceful backyard. The living room features a gorgeous picture window that brings the outdoor scene inside, while the lower level has a family room with a foosball table, Pac-Man, and a sauna for your enjoyment. The primary bedroom is located on the main level with soaring ceilings, a king bed, and a desk, along with a large primary bathroom. On the lower level are two additional bedrooms, one with a king bed and one with a queen, and a pullout sofa in the family room.  Step outside and enjoy the wonderful firepit under the dark skies of the Galena Territory.  

 

The Galena Territory is a Certified Dark Sky Community, so don't forget to bring your telescope or your favorite stargazing app to explore the night sky.

 

This home is dog-friendly and allows up to 2 dogs, with a non-refundable fee of $150. Six access cards are provided for use of the Owner's Club amenities, including indoor and outdoor swimming pools, basketball, pickleball, and tennis courts, Lake Galena, and the Marina.
