Description

Welcome to this stunning coastal shingle-style home offering a rare and coveted amenity: a perpetual access & use easement to the Lake Michigan beach! The short stroll to the beach is directly across serene Ridgeway Drive through a grassy/sandy path – NO STAIRS, ROCKS OR STEEP BLUFF – to a 30 foot beach use area! Set along a charming brick-paved street, this beach home is wrapped in classic blue cedar shake with crisp white trim and blends timeless charm with high-end updates throughout. The open concept main level is designed for effortless entertaining. The chef’s kitchen features a Wolf dual-oven range, custom hood, quartz waterfall island, and aesthetic butler’s pantry. The dramatic vaulted great room offers a stacked-stone, double-sided fireplace, built-ins, and a sculptural spiral staircase. The 3rd floor flex space offers dramatic panoramic views of Lake MI and is perfect for watching those irresistible lake sunsets. Downstairs, a finished lower level delivers a home theater setup, ping pong table, and arcade nook, perfect for movie nights and game days. Outside, the backyard is built for summer: a custom pergola with retractable shade shelters a stone fireplace, lounge seating, while a spacious paver patio offers room for dining, an outdoor ping pong table, and lush, professionally landscaped gardens surrounded by mature trees and a private white fence. A hidden koi pond completes the outdoor oasis.
