Custom-built by a professional builder using Hiawatha Log Homes’ precision-milled 10” pine logs, this Lake Michigan retreat combines timeless log home character with modern amenities. Situated on 100 feet of sugar sand beach with low dunes, the property lies near the center of seven miles of continuous wide sandy shoreline on the north shore, offering a rare lifestyle of privacy, recreation, and natural beauty. With over 2,300 sq ft of above-grade living space plus a finished lower level, the home features cathedral ceilings, a great room with stone gas fireplace, and a newly added three-season sunroom (2023) opening to a lakeside deck and covered porch. The kitchen is a standout, with granite countertops, custom cabinetry, natural stone backsplash, and GE Profile stainless appliances including induction stove, French door refrigerator, and three-rack dishwasher. The primary loft suite is a true retreat with cathedral ceiling, spa bath with air-jetted soaking tub, rain shower with bench and in-floor heat, and a large walk-in closet with custom built-ins. The main level includes two additional bedrooms, full bath, and laundry/mudroom with built-ins and beverage cooler, while the lower level offers a recreation room, storage, and half bath. A media room, office, and custom details throughout enhance both function and comfort. Heating is provided by a propane boiler and outdoor wood/corn/pellet boiler, with in-floor radiant and baseboard systems, high-speed fiber internet, whole-house humidifier, and a new roof in 2018. An extra-deep two-car heated garage with workbench, cabinets, and storage joins a 12x18 shed and woodshed for added utility. This is an exceptional value for a custom log home of this caliber on Lake Michigan’s sandy shoreline.
