About This Home

As of November 2020

Lake life luxury at its best. This beautiful, move-in ready, four-season lakefront home is located on 2680-acre all-sport Gun Lake. Only 30 minutes from Grand Rapids and Kalamazoo, this home is located on a large, flat lot perfectly suited for sunbathing and outdoor recreation. The water is steps away from the house's large porch with an eastern unobstructed view across the lake toward Yankee Springs recreational area, a perfect backdrop for spectacular sunrises with morning coffee. The lake bottom is sandy and gently sloping, the perfect spot to enjoy swimming, fishing, boating, jet skiing, wake or paddle boarding, or just floating on a raft. The house is conveniently located minutes from local shopping and restaurants, and only a 10-minute drive to Gun Lake Casino or Bay Pointe Inn for some evening entertainment. Wintertime on Gun Lake is spectacular as well, offering a quiet peaceful atmosphere, plus ice fishing, skating, snowmobiling, and access to local ski areas.

This stunning modern home has a great room with soaring, vaulted ceilings and numerous large windows overlooking the lake from the first and second floors. The natural light that shimmers off the lake and fills this home with beautiful natural light must be seen to be fully appreciated. The kitchen has cherry cabinets and a large island. The first-floor master bedroom has vaulted ceilings and large windows, providing a view of the stars from bed. The master bath has a large shower with built in seat. A beautiful oak stairway leads to the second floor where there are two more large bedrooms and another full bathroom, as well as a loft with more views of the lake.

The house is ideal for entertaining friends and family. There is parking for 7-8 cars on site, plus additional street parking is available. The house has both a covered car port and an oversized two-car garage with a work bench and pegboard walls to hang fishing poles, tools, and water toys. A generator with external hook up and transfer switch is included to provide emergency power. The garage also has an attached guest suite, perfect for overnight company with its own bathroom and sliding door leading to its own lovely covered porch. The house is tastefully landscaped with great appeal from both the street and the lake. A 100+ foot long pier with spots for 2 boats, jet skis, and a swimming ladder is also included.
