Description
Originally reserved by the developer for his own family, this homesite was never meant to be sold.
Set at the top of the dune in the Forest Beach neighborhood, it offers a rare vantage point with sweeping views across the wooded valley, along with glimpses of both Lake Michigan and Lake Macatawa. It’s the kind of setting that feels special the moment you arrive.
Forest Beach spans 49 acres of preserved woods and dunes with over 1,000 feet of shared Lake Michigan frontage. This property includes three deeded beach access points spanning multiple neighboring beachfront areas, offering a level of flexibility not commonly found along this stretch of shoreline.
It is also one of only three properties with a parking easement at the ‘Chicago Addition,’ allowing you to park just steps from the beach. Backing directly to Sanctuary Woods, a protected 40-acre natural area with established trails, the property offers exceptional privacy with no homes behind you; just woods, quiet, and the ability to step outside your door and walk the trails whenever you choose.
This is a place that truly captures the best of West Michigan: private beach access, miles of shoreline, wooded trails, and a peaceful setting that feels removed yet connected to everything around it.
A foundation from prior plans remains on site, along with concepts for both a 4,000+ square foot home and a smaller footprint design.
Buildable lots with private beach access along this stretch of Lake Michigan are limited, and opportunities like this rarely come along. Many homes in this area have been held for generations, passed down over time. It’s the kind of place people find and never want to leave.
