Set on two lots along a pristine 35-mile stretch of natural shoreline, the home blends sophisticated contemporary design with timeless cottage charm. Extensively renovated in 2018, this 6,000 sq. ft., 5-bedroom, 6-bath home is filled with natural light from triple-pane Pella windows and showcases wide plank oak floors, radiant heated tile flooring in the lower-level baths and radiant heated flooring in lower-level family room, kitchen and breakfast nook. A full-house Generac generator ensures seamless comfort year-round. Mature landscaping, front and rear outdoor lighting, and a spacious lakeside deck and patio create ideal spaces for outdoor living and entertaining. The chef’s kitchen features Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances, custom cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and a built-in Earthstone pizza oven.

Two additional en-suite bedrooms, a powder room, laundry, and a heated, attached single-car garage complete the main level. The walk-out lower level offers a second kitchen with a center island, a second laundry room, a half bath, ample storage, and patio access. It also includes an en-suite guest room and an additional bedroom—perfect for hosting family and friends. An attached, epoxy floored 2.5-car garage adds further convenience and space. Ideally situated near trails, inland lakes, and protected lands, this rare architectural-quality home offers refined lakefront living in a serene, natural setting. Whether as a primary residence or luxury retreat, a personal visit is essential to truly appreciate the home’s quality, design, and privacy.
