Beaver Island real estate. Atop a natural bluff with a commanding sunset view overlooking two miles of undeveloped Lake Michigan waterfront and beach, this executive house presents one of the remotest retreats in Northern Michigan. Accessible by private drive through virgin Beaver Island forest and yet just minutes from Fresh Air Aviation airport. Fly in and enjoy your freshwater island retreat and the unspoiled, unhurried, and unmatched beauty of Beaver Island. Custom built with every room oriented toward the water, there is no absence of natural light. Large, wrap-around decks for both lower and upper levels. Tasteful, antique lighting fixtures throughout. Main-level master suite with two adjoining private bathrooms. Library with propane gas stove for ambiance and warmth. Living-room wood-burning fireplace with stone cut reliefs of Beaver Island and Michigan. Large guest or in-law suite with full kitchen and walk-out deck shared with main house. Well-maintained tennis court and large pole building with 14' door clearance for boat and toy storage. Extremely quiet with some of the darkest night skies accessible in Northern Michigan for the full spectrum of night-sky observation. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for one of the quietest locales in Northern Michigan.
