Welcome to Hideaway 56, a thoughtfully designed retreat in the heart of Carlton Landing’s beloved Crossings District. With its striking black-and-white exterior, generous outdoor spaces, and refined yet comfortable interiors, this home was created for families and friends who love to gather, relax, and linger a little longer.

Set on a corner spanning two landscaped lots, Hideaway 56 feels open and peaceful.Soft turf invites barefoot lounging, while twinkle lights overhead create the perfect evening glow. Gather around the gas fire pit, grill dinner on the Blackstone, and enjoy long conversations on the brick patio as the sun sets.

Outside, there’s parking for two vehicles and convenient common parking just steps from the house, plus space for a golf cart if you decide to rent one for exploring town.

The wraparound porch is where mornings begin and evenings wind down. It’s fully furnished with macramé swings, cushioned lounge chairs, and a classic porch swing, all designed for comfort and conversation. Two ceiling fans keep the air cool, and an outdoor television means you can enjoy the big game or a family movie without ever stepping inside. Portable stools double as child seats or footrests, making this outdoor space as flexible as it is charming.

Step inside through any of the home’s three entrances, and you’ll instantly feel the warmth of a space that balances beauty with livability. The living room features a plush sectional sofa, two cushioned armchairs, and a smart tv mounted over a gas fireplace; the perfect gathering space after a day on the lake. Side tables, woven stools, and a sofa table offer extra seating and storage, while the under-stair nook is filled with toys to delight younger guests. Just off this space is a powder bathroom with stunning custom tile work; a small but memorable detail that reflects the craftsmanship throughout the home.

Through a wide arched opening, you’ll find the chef’s kitchen, a true showpiece of Hideaway 56. A large island anchors the space, surrounded by Café brand appliances in white and gold, including a double oven, six-burner gas range, and oversized stainless steel sink. Every drawer is neatly labeled and fully stocked with cookware and utensils. A Keurig and 12-cup Café coffee maker give you options for your morning brew. Three woven barstools at the island make it easy to chat with the cook, and the dining nook nearby comfortably seats ten, creating a bright, open space where cooking, dining, and laughter all flow together.

A hallway off the kitchen leads to the laundry room, complete with a full-sized washer and dryer, bench seating, hooks, and cabinets stocked with guest amenities like pool towels, floaties, and beach toys, so you’re ready for a day in the sun. The hall is bathed in natural light, and French doors open directly onto the brick patio, making outdoor dining and grilling effortless. Warm wood beams extend into the main-level primary suite, adding natural texture and visual warmth.

The primary bedroom is a calm and airy retreat with high ceilings, soft lighting, and windows that frame the landscape outside. A pillow-top king bed, television, dresser, and nightstands complete the space, while the attached en-suite bathroom feels like a personal spa. Enjoy a double vanity, custom tile backsplash, and a walk-in shower with three shower heads and a granite bench, along with a separate private room for the toilet.

A carpeted staircase leads to an upper landing equipped with a secure wooden safety gate, ideal for families with little ones. The second floor features three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, each designed with both comfort and personality in mind.

The upstairs primary suite includes a king bed, dresser, side tables, and ample natural light from three tall windows. The private en-suite bathroom is tiled in soft blue and white, with a single vanity and walk-in shower.

A guest bedroom across the hall also offers a king bed, dresser, nightstands, and a window with a view of the grassy park, Lincoln Square. 

The bunk room is a guest favorite — a cheerful, custom-built space with four extra-long twin bunks, each with individual lighting, outlets, and shelves. The room also includes a cozy living area with a pull-out sofa (full size), a television, and a walk-in closet. A nearby full bathroom with a shower/tub combo and custom textiles serves this room and the King guest bedroom, completing the upstairs level.

Every corner of Hideaway 56 has been designed for relaxation, functionality, and joy. It’s the kind of place where mornings start with coffee on the porch, afternoons are spent exploring the quaint lake town, and evenings end with stories by the fire pit under a canopy of stars. With thoughtful touches for children and adults alike, Hideaway 56 offers a sense of ease that makes every stay feel special.
