About This Home
As of July 2025Enjoy 140 feet of private Lake Michigan frontage and a sugar-sand beach at this custom-built home, offering sweeping water views, year-round sunsets, and a rare connection to nature.
Step through custom-crafted copper doors sculpted by Roy Datz into a grand foyer that sets the tone for the craftsmanship throughout. The open floor plan showcases natural wood finishes, soaring cathedral ceilings, and a dramatic wall of windows facing the lake. Anderson windows with UV-tinted privacy glass and automatic openers in the great room and loft enhance both comfort and design.
The main living, dining, and kitchen areas all enjoy stunning lake views with windows that span from ceiling to floor. Relax by the fireplace that showcases a custom mural that was hand made by Jody Hemphill Smith.
The kitchen features a large center island with leathered granite counters and seating for gathering with family and friends. Enjoy prepping meals with the Wolf double oven, grill, and griddle and easy clean up with the Bosch dishwasher (2016). Italian porcelain tile floors add a durable and elegant touch. Step outside onto the full-length front deck ideal for outdoor dining, relaxing, or simply watching the waves.
The main floor primary suite offers expansive water views, access to deck, cozy fireplace and Brazilian cherry floors. Private ensuite includes a Jason hydrotherapy tub, walk-in tile shower, and sauna. A half bath and oversized laundry room with Maytag washer (2016) and Whirlpool dryer (2020) round out the main level.
A custom-made staircase leads to the upper level's loft-style family room, offering more expansive views of the water and woods. One of the upper bedrooms features bamboo flooring, its own private deck, perfect for sunsets, stargazing or enjoying peaceful mornings. A third spacious bedroom and full bath complete the second floor.
Timber frame beams in the rotunda are Douglas fir from Idaho and white pine from Scottville, Michigan highlighting the home's connection to both local and distant sources. Handcrafted touches include stained glass by William Lupkin in the foyer and primary suite, and a unique spiral staircase created by Phil Wolf.
Easily access the crawlspace outside or in the house and make use of the space that spans the whole length of the home for storage. It has a concrete floor with linoleum finish.
Designed by architect Norman Dodds and built by Platinum Builders in 2005, this home is as solid as it is striking. Updates include a geothermal furnace (2015), silk carpet in the loft and upstairs bedroom (2015), custom blinds and drapes (2016), Generac whole-house generator (2022), ultra sump pump (2020), well pump (2018), and an LG refrigerator (2025).
Enjoy an easy stroll down the sandy pathway to the waters edge where you can walk the beach, relax or play in the water. This is an exciting opportunity to own a thoughtfully designed waterfront home that blends art, architecture, and the natural beauty of Lake Michigan.
