waterfront home

Lakeside dwelling place

A waterfront home is a residential property situated directly on a body of water—ocean, lake, river, or bay.

The term emphasizes both location and lifestyle, suggesting direct water access, views, and often a dock or beach.

Waterfront homes typically command premium prices: They've been looking at waterfront homes on the lake.

The compound functions as a real estate category distinct from merely water-adjacent properties.
