There is no shortage of room for that large dining room table for family and guests alike. The living room showcases a large stone fireplace and mantel perfect for lighting on a cold winter day, warming up following skiing on nearby slopes or after an outdoor hike on the beach or surrounding woods. The Primary suite is tucked away from the other bedrooms off the original living area with great views of the backside of the property. Up a gorgeous pine staircase are two spacious additional bedrooms sharing a Jack and Jill bath with two separate toilets. These rooms are large enough to hold multiple bunk beds and would make a perfect bunk room for all the guests. On the right side of the cabin is an addition that was added in the early 2000's. Keeping with the same theme of timeless knotty pine walls and flooring, no detail was spared.The main level has an enormous family room that also includes an additional eating area, wet bar with beautiful cabinets, an additional full bath with heated tile floors, large main floor laundry room with storage and a mudroom that leads out to the large 3 stall, fully insulated garage with bonus trusses. The loft of this addition could also be used as an additional bedroom for guests, or an additional 2 bedrooms could be finished on the other side of the drywall. The door frame and mechanical workings are already in place to add the bedrooms plus an additional bath if desired. Currently, the loft offers a great additional space to sit and relax, read a book, and take in all the spectacular views inside and out of the home. It also offers an access point up a flight of unique stairs leading to the most notable feature of this home...the 3rd level tower with 360 degree views of the property including a stunning view of Lake Michigan! This would be a great place to add your home office, library, telescope; the opportunities are endless! Open the windows in the spring and summer and enjoy the sound of the waves crashing on the beach. The basement is currently unfinished with an abundance of space to be finished or used for storage. Bilco doors were installed for ease of bringing patio furniture in and out as the weather changes. The original half of the house is heated and cooled by a standard HVAC system that was replaced in 2021. The new section is equipped with a boiler system that is extremely efficient with multiple zones for comfort and not to forget, a whole house generator. To top off all that this home already has to offer, a 3 minute walk to the private association beach is yours to enjoy year round. The soft sandy beach, amazing blue water, weathered stones and views of Sleeping Bear Dunes is breathtaking and an experience of its own. This property also has a additional buildable lot next door for purchase separately or could be packaged together.This stunning and pristine log cabin was built and meticulously cared for by its original owners for its lifetime.
