Sophisticated beach house, inspired by the movie “Something’s Gotta Give”, balances style with luxury. Set on a private plat with 150 ft of pristine sandy beach on Lake Michigan, you’ll see and hear the waves lapping the shore from nearly every room in the house which has been extensively renovated by its current owners since 2015. A stately living area with vaulted ceiling, natural fireplace and wainscoting accented walls provide the perfect setting to entertain family and friends. You’re never far from the gathering in the chef’s kitchen flanked by a cozy breakfast nook and casually elegant dining space. Just steps from the main floor living is a beautifully crafted outdoor fireplace and cooking station on an outdoor patio with sweeping views of the Manitou Islands, and Fox Islands. The main floor master bedroom offers a private retreat with an adjacent floor to ceiling screened porch, gracious bath with marble finishes and walk in closet. Custom built stairs and loft provide a reading nook aloft from the living area with access to two additional bedrooms with en-suite baths and fine details including custom cabinetry, designer tile, generous closets and private outdoor decks. The addition of a 1+ car garage includes a new bonus room above that is ideal for an office or artist’s haven and also includes an adjacent bathroom (this room is currently being finished). Take a virtual tour of the special family beach house to experience what your future could hold.
