About This Home
Presenting one of the most architecturally significant homes in West Michigan, this Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired estate is the crown jewel of the prestigious Watermark neighborhood. Perched on a rare double lot overlooking the 8th fairway of the private Watermark Golf Course, this residence seamlessly blends art, engineering, and comfort across more than 10,000 square feet of breathtaking design.
Step into a grand entrance framed by custom stained glass and a soaring 12-foot wall of windows that perfectly frame panoramic views of the manicured green. Every inch of this home has been crafted with extraordinary attention to detail—from the hand-selected finishes to the thoughtful integration of luxury technology. The heart of the home is a chef's dream: a massive gourmet kitchen featuring an oversized Thermador range, double ovens, twin dishwashers, and an expansive center island designed for entertaining. The open-concept living spaces are bathed in natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows, blurring the line between indoor and outdoor living.
The private primary wing is a true sanctuary, showcasing an arched brick ceiling that adds timeless architectural drama. A cozy sitting area with a fireplace offers the perfect retreat within your own home. The massive ensuite bathroom features designer tilework, a luxurious soaking tub, and an oversized walk-in shower, creating a spa-like experience. Dual walk-in closets each thoughtfully designed for his and her wardrobes provide extensive storage and impeccable organization. Not to mention it's own private stone patio
Designed for year-round enjoyment, the extensive outdoor living spaces rival those of a luxury resort. Entertain with ease under the expansive covered patio, complete with built-in grills, outdoor fireplaces, and multiple seating areas perfect for hosting or relaxing in style. Whether enjoying quiet mornings with views of the golf course or lively evenings around the fire, the outdoor experience is as refined as the interior.
A stately private office provides the ultimate work-from-home setting, complete with rich wood paneling, custom built-ins, and a sophisticated desk area. For moments of creative pause or relaxation, a personal indoor putting green brings a touch of fun and leisure into the workday making productivity both stylish and inspiring.
Enjoy the convenience of a full bar, heated floors throughout, surround sound, and electronic blinds. For entertainment, the THX-certified home theatre provides a cinematic experience unlike any other, while the indoor saltwater pool offers year-round relaxation.
This one-of-a-kind estate is more than a home - it's a statement of excellence, privacy, and modern luxury.
