About This Home
As of May 2018This much loved beach house in the charming original section of Grand Beach is now available for the next owners to enjoy for another 25 years. Purchased in 1992 as a new house, it has the vibes of a home with lots of fond memories. There are 6 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms (with steam shower in the master bath), an in-ground pool, lots of decks and views of Lake Michigan from many spots in the house. It is filled with lots of interesting rooms and secluded spots for everyone. Access to a very nice beach, Whitewood, is just 1/2 block away.
