The week’s top sale was a Contemporary lake home at 104 Deer Walk Trail in Bass Cove, in Huddleston, which sold for $1.495 million. Built in 1995, the home sits on 1.11 acres, the largest lot of the five, and the ground is level, which is unusual on this lake. It fronts a cove and has views of both the lake and the mountains.

A large foyer leads into an open main level. The kitchen sits next to a breakfast area and the dining room, and the living room is built around a double-sided fireplace.
