Description

Designed with the fly angler at heart, Whippoorwill is truly a unique development of fine homes spread over 46 acres with 1,600' of collective Au Sable Holy Water frontage. The Adirondack style log cabin was built with an exceptional eye for detail including custom stained-glass trout windows, forged iron rafter turnbuckles and a natural stone Rumford fireplace. Each log was meticulously selected, hand scribed and stacked with Scandinavian style joinery. Modern finishes and appliances provide all...Designed with the fly angler at heart, Whippoorwill is truly a unique development of fine homes spread over 46 acres with 1,600' of collective Au Sable Holy Water frontage. The Adirondack style log cabin was built with an exceptional eye for detail including custom stained-glass trout windows, forged iron rafter turnbuckles and a natural stone Rumford fireplace. Each log was meticulously selected, hand scribed and stacked with Scandinavian style joinery. Modern finishes and appliances provide all the comforts of a fine home without detracting from the rustic craftsmanship of the structure itself. The heart of the development is the Preserve with over 700' of outstanding fly water, a private trout pond and a classic boat house converted to a sitting room over the water. A large garage provides safe haven for boats and projects and the unfinished upstairs living quarters can provide future living space. Rarely does a home of this caliber become available for sale, let alone in the finest stretch of the most beloved trout stream in the eastern United States.
