Property Description
A large, 3 story, Victorian style home built in 2004 with 7 bedrooms, 4 & 1/2 baths, and approximately 5,000 sq. ft. of living space located about 2 miles north of Frankfort. The house is on a high bluff overlooking Lake Michigan. With 3 spacious levels of beautifully crafted wooden interiors, a large family can have its own private spaces or entertain large groups in the main level. The fully equipped kitchen has everything you need including a large walk in pantry. There is a large sunroom that catches the morning rays leading out to a full length deck. The huge master bedroom has a large bath with a jetted tub. A main floor laundry is just off the kitchen near the rear entrance. A hot water heating system is clean and quiet and located in the huge basement where there is lots of storage space, or room for a workshop, or room to create more living space, a game room, theater, wine cellar, etc. This home is accessible to the owners and their family in temperature-controlled comfort all year round. All of the listed dimensions are approximate. A buyer for this home will need to construct a new driveway for better access to the home, which must be approved by E,G.L.E., and the owner has included a 3 acre waterfront lot adjacent to the home for this purpose. This one of a kind home is in a great location, right next to the CSA, just down the road from the Yacht Club, Point Betsie, and Crystal Downs Country Club, and only a five minute drive into town. Priced at $1,300,000.
