About This Home
It's here: the best beach house in St Joseph! Located just a few short blocks south of downtown St Joseph, Silver Beach, and the Krasl Art Center, and north of Lions Park Beach, you can see the lighthouse, channel, windsurfers, boaters, beach walkers, and great sunsets from this low-maintenance newer home, which is being sold with most furnishings. Designed with main floor living, it includes a primary suite with tall ceilings and amazing views, along with a great kitchen featuring a walk-in pantry, double ovens, a large center island, and parking for 10-12 guests. The primary suite offers two walk-in closets, a jet tub, and a separate shower. Updates include a newer furnace and AC, 50-year roof, newer hot water heater, and gutters. Attached side-load garage. The daylight lower level has a large rec room, two or three more bedrooms, and a wet bar with a second refrigerator. This well-protected stretch of beach offers convenient, nearly step-free access to a wide sandy shoreline you can walk all the way to the South Pier. Twelve neighbors went together to protect the bluff during high lake level years, and the water plant to the south ensures the city will protect this area. Dredge spoils were placed about 50 yards out, creating nice sand bars. Outdoor lakeside living here is wonderful. The exterior has a classic cottage style with very little landscape maintenance, while the interior detail includes tray ceilings and other great trim and finishes. Ready to move in and start enjoying the lake, the beach, and the sunsets.
