About This Home

You dream about living on the water... that place where you get to enjoy the beauty of water views from every room... where you can open the windows and feel the warm breeze sweep in along with the sounds of water, children laughing and playing, boats pulling tubers & skiers. Where some of the hardest decisions are to put the cover on the boat for the night or instead go out for a golden-hour cruise. 5163 Silver Cove Drive is that place... and more. Resting on the shores of one of the most in-demand lakes in the Traverse City area... Silver Lake, is known for its proximity to downtown TC and all-sports fun that is easy to have on its nearly 600 acres of sandy bottom and crystal clear blue waters. One thing that makes this home so special is that it is in a neighborhood... so having community and friendship, for kids and adults alike, is not an if but a when. It's important to have space when you live on the lake... visitors will come. The main house offers 5 bedrooms (2 upstairs, 3 downstairs) and 3 bathrooms (2 upstairs, 1 downstairs). There's multiple living spaces and it's all been renovated top-to-bottom. The walkout basement is a must! The fun is just outside that sliding door. Guests LOVE staying in their very own private apartment and the nearly 700 sq ft space above the secondary detached garage is just right. They can cook, sleep, do laundry and hangout all in their very own quarters. Be sure to leave a chocolate on the pillows! Don't worry, your toys have plenty of space as well. The attached oversized garage with tall ceilings provides ample space for cars and toys and the secondary garage will fit many types of boats and is a great space for a workshop. This one is a must see in person... set up your showing today and start living your best life!
