This magazine worthy home (featured in Log Home Living, HD Living and twice in Traverse Magazine) boasts both character and modern conveniences. Your senses will be in awe of this incredible setting as you listen to the waves of the majestic Lake Michigan, admire the surrounding colors: blues, aquas, greens of the glistening water, and the vibrant violets and pinks of pristine sunsets, and enjoy the feel of 117.5' of sandy Lake Michigan frontage. Thanks to the mindful layout, grand ceilings and large windows, the views are fully taken advantage of in this log home. Full size Red Pine logs (averaging 12-14" in diameter and 30-40' long) provide unique lines, texture and color throughout the home. Wide plank Heart Pine heated floors keep this home cozy and gorgeous. Woodworking, masonry and metal smithing design by local artisans adorn the entire home and guest cabin (equipped with full kitchen, washer and dryer, 3/4 bathroom and lofted bedroom area that sleeps at least 6.) Main home and guest cabin are thoughtfully connected by deck boardwalk. Open concept chef's kitchen, dining and living lend a perfect setting for entertaining. The study is the perfect place for inspiration and productivity and even features a wet bar and private deck overlooking the water. For luxe relaxation head to both the yoga studio (bonus space above garage--perfect space to accommodate overflow guests) and the private primary ensuite is a true escape. The primary ensuite conveniently has a screened in porch directly off the bedroom which can also be accessed by open dining/living area and outdoor patio. The primary bathroom is spa like as it is outfitted with handblown glass pendants that mimic shooting stars above the shower and soaking tub, which has stunning lake views. Sauna (included w/ home) and outdoor shower continue the relaxation. Every inch of this home has been mindfully designed and curated to capture natural beauty and create the ultimate spacial coziness for owners and guests.
