About This Home
Architect Anthony Belluschi, FAIA, discovered this Northwest Indiana cabin just forty-five miles from his Chicago townhouse. Surrounded by the beauty of the Indiana DunesNational Park, comprised of sand dunes, quiet woodlands, Lake Michigan beaches and more. Designed and built by Alden Studebaker in 1932, the cabin features a cathedral ceiling and large stone fireplace, combined with Oregon logs. Since their 1991 purchase, Anthony and his wife Marti's terracing, landscaping, and architectural transformationshave only added to this idyllic spot. Studebaker's original beam and timber framing, with the original log walls, fill the interiors with an ageless charm. Belluschi designed and completed a small cedar-and-glass addition to the main house. Belluschi also designed a deck, bridge, and gazebo which projects summer leisure and dining into the trees andover the valley. The Belluschis are charmed by the views of the lake to the north and the views of the sunset over Chicago. For them, "there is nothing more peaceful" than watching the water from a log house amid the evergreens of the high dunes. Dune Acres is an attractive town with a variety of homes and a nice blend of full and part-time residents of all ages. When interested, residents can enjoyactivities and events, particularly holiday parties staged at the historic log Clubhouse. The town is close to Chesterton, other lakefront towns and many local amenities and services.
