About This Home

Set on a private 20-acre homestead with 400' of Lake Susan waterfront within Forest Cove Association, this estate is a remarkable Northern Michigan retreat designed to embrace its natural surroundings. Designed by renowned architect Jonathan Lee, the home features custom woodwork, generous living spaces, oversized windows, and beautiful western views of the lake, neighboring pear orchard, and spectacular sunsets. Exceptional craftsmanship is evident throughout with custom millwork. Three fireplaces add warmth and character, while the library—with its partners desk overlooking the upper sun porch—offers one of the home's most memorable vantage points. Designed for both intimate gatherings and large-scale entertaining, the home flows seamlessly to expansive decks, balconies, and two three-season porches. The custom kitchen is ideal for entertaining, while a state-of-the-art cinema, billiard room, private gym, and generous craft/storage room provide exceptional amenities. A second laundry near the primary suite adds everyday convenience. Year-round comfort is enhanced by 11 zones of in-floor radiant heat, five A/C zones, natural gas, a whole-home Generac generator, Sonos, high-speed internet, centralized lighting controls, and outdoor security cameras. The grounds feature professionally designed gardens, mature maples, an apple orchard, fenced backyard, irrigation system drawing from Lake Susan, and a detached potting/equipment shed. An Alaskan yellow cedar roof and white cedar siding complement the setting. Forest Cove offers access to approx. 175 acres of Little Traverse Conservancy land with maintained hiking, snowshoeing, and cross-country ski trails, seasonal bow hunting, and a members-only horse barn and corral. Lake Susan invites fishing and summer days on the water. Rarely does a property combine this level of craftsmanship, privacy, acreage, waterfront, preserved land, and four-season recreation in one exceptional Northern Michigan setting.
