About This Home
Just a short stroll to Walnut Beach, this Grand Beach getaway is tucked into the trees and set up for easygoing lake life. With 5 bedrooms, 4 full baths, and plenty of space to unwind, it's a rare blend of charm, updates, and flexibility. The main level features two bedrooms, two baths, oak floors, an spacious, updated kitchen, and a limestone fireplace in the living room, which opens to a huge deck with seasonal views of Lake Michigan and year-round sunsets. The dining room opens to a second deck in back—perfect for grilling, bond fires, and a dip in the hot tub. Downstairs, the walkout level adds three more bedrooms, two baths, a second living room with fireplace, and a full wet bar/kitchenette. A two-car garage gives you space for bikes, boards, and beach gear—but the real bonus is the half-acre lot to the south, included in the sale! Build a pool, add an observation deck, or just enjoy the extra elbow room and privacy.
