About This Home
Architecturally inspired by Frank Lloyd Wright’s Prairie-style homes, The Doleman House is a striking Mid Century Modern 5-bed, 3.1-bath walkout ranch on nearly an acre of pristine Cass Lakefront. This custom residence blends architectural artistry with natural beauty, offering timeless design, exceptional craftsmanship, and a deep connection to its surroundings.
Constructed from natural materials with no industrial metals, the home celebrates light, space, and the outdoors. The dramatic fieldstone fireplace built from stones gathered on-site anchors the open floor plan while maintaining 70 feet of uninterrupted sightlines across the main level. Wide 4ft hallways, elevated beam ceilings, and expansive windows fill the home with natural light and frame serene lake and landscape views. The private courtyard with Japanese maples and the property’s majestic Ash tree, one of SE Michigan’s largest surviving specimens enhance the home’s harmony with nature.
The chef’s kitchen features a Sub-Zero refrigerator, two-drawer under-counter freezer, Wolf five-burner cooktop and double oven, and Bosch dishwasher, all seamlessly integrated into custom cabinetry. The lower level continues the home’s artistry with hand-cut green tile surrounding the fireplace, pickled white knotty pine ceilings, and warm bamboo flooring. The main level showcases rift and quartered white oak floors with a museum-grade Swedish finish.
Additional highlights include a vibrant Japanese art-inspired orange tile bath, a custom birch office/library (or 5th bedroom), Trek decking overlooking Cass Lake, and an eco-friendly irrigation system sourced from the lake. Updates include newer vinyl windows, an advanced water softening system, and a brand-new roof and kitchen skylights (just completed). A true work of living architecture, The Doleman House reflects craftsmanship, design integrity, and harmony with nature set on one of Michigan’s most coveted all-sports lakes. Lakefront parcel 18-04-379-024 included.
