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.
