From the serene pond-perfect for fishing, kayaking, or quiet reflection-to the vibrant gardens and glimpses of Lake Michigan, every inch of this property invites you to unwind and savor the outdoors. Inside, the home is a showcase of timeless craftsmanship and thoughtful upgrades. Gleaming red oak floors greet you upon entry, leading to a spacious family room centered around a cozy fireplace. The open-concept design effortlessly connects the living and dining areas to a chef's kitchen, complete with an eat-at island, abundant workspace, and all the amenities for hosting or casual mornings at home. A newer sunroom addition steals the show with its soaring double-height ceilings, transom windows, and breathtaking views of the pond and surrounding landscape. The main level boasts flexibility and accessibility, with two additional bedrooms, a flex office/bedroom, 2.5 baths, and a zero-threshold 2-car garage. The finished basement is an entertainer's dream, featuring a sprawling recreation room, wet bar with a serving island, full bath, workshop, and extensive storage. Step outside to discover a true outdoor retreat. The large raised concrete patio, fenced side yard, and powered shed offer endless possibilities, while custom features like the staircase to the pond, overlook deck, and firepit area create a space designed for relaxation and connection with nature. Meticulously maintained garden beds, a working honeybee farm, and over $140,000 in upgrades-including a new roof (2025)-ensure this home is as turnkey as it is extraordinary. With its warm and inviting finishes, modern updates, and unparalleled natural setting, this property is more than a home-it's a lifestyle. Don't miss the opportunity to make it yours!
