955 & 957 W Center Street, Douglas, MI 49406

Description

Welcome to The Gardens, an exceptional Saugatuck/Douglas property located just ONE BLOCK from the Douglas Beach public access stairs. Walk to Lake Michigan in minutes—no searching for beach parking or fighting summer traffic! Stroll along the nearby nature preserve on your way to Woosah for morning coffee or stop at the iconic Root Beer Barrel for a midday snack. The list price includes BOTH 955 & 957 Center Street, sold together as one duplex property. Originally the historic Button Gallery, The Gardens was thoughtfully transformed in 2005 into two beautiful residences surrounded by lush gardens, mature trees, and flowering landscapes. Azalea (955) is a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath residence featuring a primary suite with dual vanities and custom tiled shower, two additional bedrooms, in-unit laundry, gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, open living and dining areas, and gas fireplace. Outdoor amenities include a new deck, hot tub, fire pit, custom gazebo swings, and beautiful garden spaces. Lily (957) is a charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath residence featuring a spacious primary suite, second bedroom with its own full bath, gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, gas fireplace, fresh interior paint, and private slate patio overlooking the gardens. Fully furnished with an acceptable offer, The Gardens offers a turnkey opportunity as a vacation home, multi-generational retreat, or investment property. Historically enjoyed primarily as a family vacation home with rentals helping offset ownership costs, the property was not operated solely to maximize rental income. Even so, the two residences generated approximately $91,000 in combined gross room revenue from Aug. 2025-Aug. 2026. Just minutes from downtown Saugatuck and Douglas, Oval Beach, Mount Baldhead, marinas, dune rides, restaurants, galleries, and wineries. Two residences, one incredible property, turnkey investment potential, and Lake Michigan just one block away. Welcome to The Gardens!
