About This Home

As of October 2020

Imagine spending the Summer here Lake Michigan - Gorgeous Sunsets and Stunning Views and the sound of Relaxing Waves are what you will get from this home with 150' of frontage on Lake Michigan. The 2 year old stairway provides easy access to the beautiful sandy beach. The cottage style home has 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, along with a large screened porch running the length of the home to expand your living and dining space in the warmer months. Beautiful location to live year round, or use as a family cottage. The large yard provides plenty of room for outdoor activities. Plenty of privacy, as the home is located between two dead end streets and surrounded by mature landscaping. Conveniently located close to the lakefront towns of South Haven, Glenn, Saugatuck and Douglas.
