About This Home
As of June 2020This stunning renovation of a 1940's log home is one of the finest examples you'll find in turning a vintage classic into a smart, sophisticated getaway you'll want to retreat to whenever possible. Effectively 4 years new, the home is on .76 acre and is located just steps to the beach in the Village of Michiana. Designed by architect Anthony Moss, The facade of this stately log was preserved paying homage to its past, but inside, the home has been completely reconstructed from foundation to roof providing a sensible floor plan, beautiful finishes, and every amenity to create a comfortable luxury haven. Lots of ship lap siding and repurposed v-board gives this home a sense of warmth, texture and a nod to its past. The vaulted living room with stone fireplace and bay windows leads out to the screened porch that overlooks the 12x45 lap pool, stone patio and decks. The cook's galley style kitchen features a 12' island, SubZero and Wolf appliances and adjoins the dining room with balcony. The master bedroom suite is located on the main level, along with a den/family room. Two ensuite guest bedrooms are on the 2nd level with a lofted reading area with built-in bookshelves. The lower level features a mudroom laundry room, full bath and 4th bedroom. A firepit, bocce ball court and 2 car garage complete this special offering. Located just 75 miles from downtown Chicago.
