Lake Michigan storybook Cape Cod/Nantucket style “Bowhouse'' home filled with charm and character on a prime wide, low bluff, sandy beach Lake Michigan lot w/only 21 steps to the beach & a lakeside covered gazebo. What a value! The same sized lot to the south sold at $1,075,000 ten years ago. Located behind 14 acres w/iconic red barns that cannot be developed. Off Blue Star over a wooden bridge w/creek, this is an idyllic retreat from the city life. Besides the 3 bedroom, 2 bath main home w/potential to finish the basement, there is also a detached garage w/a separate guest apartment w/kitchenette & full bath above & its own porch for enjoying the breezes & lake views. You’ll love the Rumsford fireplace w/built-in cabinetry, the beautiful wide plank Pine floors & historically correct

Supplements: hardware, doors, custom millwork even down to the nails in the floor and Bulls Eye glass in the front door. Seller was an antiques dealer and most of the furnishings are negotiable. Even though you'll get away from it all at this lake home, never fear for there is high speed Comcast internet here. Wonderful screened lakeside porch! Landscaper/caretaker will probably stay on (for hire). No formal association..just good lakefront living at it's best. VanderMeulen Builders.The 121st Street part towards the lake is county maintained to where the turn (left when coming in) down to the bridge is made. The county plows, fills with gravel and oils in the summer. The remaining "loop" south to the cemetery is maintained by the neighbors from a collective fund. Sky Sudam, a year-round resident manages the account, and it is quite informal. Some years we pay nothing, and some years he asks for 200-300 dollars to top up the fund. All neighbors on the road pay in equally. Marcell, our caretaker plows out our actual driveway as needed, depending on the amount of snowfall. He also will shovel the walks if he knows we are coming up.
