Property Details

Description

Nestled on the cedar lined shores of Lake Charlevoix sits this beautiful Cape Cod inspired home, wrapped in a white cedar shake that allows for natural aging and low maintenance, indicative of East Coast US Nantucket. Inside are large bedrooms, giving family and friends plenty of room to settle into this Waterfront Home and stay a while. When the owners built this home they strived for the comfort you find in traditional farmhouses built in the yesteryear. The main floor master bedroom opens to a screened porch, perfect for sitting with your morning coffee. The very open kitchen with a new 6-burner Wolfe range, flows into a tasteful formal dining space with crown molding and cherry floors and leads to a living room crowned by a fieldstone wood burning fireplace and a wall span of bookshelves. Have your very own library or showcase all art and memories by the crackling fire. An extra wide stairwell leads to the 4 spacious bedrooms and 3 bathrooms in the upper level, two of which are complimented by elevated lake views peaking above the native tree line.The lower level features a very cozy den/TV area, perfect for family movie night, an office, and ample space for storage. The owners added nostalgic favorites like spring loaded wooden screen doors, schoolhouse milk glass fixtures, black and white mosaic tiling, and of course, a laundry chute! Now the real jewel-the wraparound covered porch! At 11 ft. deep and sprawling to highlight both sunrise and sunset views, complete with a wicker swing and that feeling that just screams for laughter and stories that will last you a lifetime. The extra deep 3.5 car garage is ornamented with a finished art studio above which could be used as kid's bunk room or an office with an elevated view. Lakefront living in this type of home only comes around once in a while. Come sit on the porch and take in the view!
