About This Home

As of May 2019

132' of Lake Michigan frontage on 1.36 acres with spectacular 180 degree lake views and a gentle descent down to a gorgeous wide sandy beach. This timeless Contemporary home by Konstant Architecture & Planning is filled with natural light and designed to capture the views from just about every room in the house. Immediately upon entering the foyer, the eye is drawn to the breathtaking lake views from the floor to ceiling windows in the dramatic 2 story curved living room. The clean white interior palette and beautiful Ash hardwood floors give the home a comfortable contemporary look. The spacious kitchen with Thermador & SubZero appliances features a built-in eating area, and is also designed on a radius with windows that look out onto the lake. The family room with fireplace adjoins the living room and is an inviting spot for reading or watching a movie. The spacious master bedroom suite on the 2nd level has a fireplace, 2 walk-in closets, a private balcony overlooking the lake, luxurious bath with whirlpool tub, sauna, a skylight in the circular shower and an area for a treadmill or bike. Located on the other end of the home are 2 ensuite guest bedrooms, each with private balconies. Amenities include an enclosed sun room/hot tub room, a finished lower level recreation room, attached 2 car garage, tennis court, screened gazebo and gated entry. The 862 sq ft guest house can be used now, but does require future structural repair.
