The home you thought would never be available for sale - now is! This original 1920 animal and tractor barn was renovated in 1981 and hides back in a beautiful, private setting directly across from the Audubon, allowing access to Lake Michigan and 75 acres of wildlife at your doorstep. And there are even views of Lake Michigan from the yard as well as some rooms, seasonally. Original structural beams and original chestnut barn planks are still in place and preserved beautifully. The previous renovator brought cargo crates from Europe full of incredible pieces to this home. The brass railing on the staircase was from a hotel in Paris. You'll also find leaded glass, antique lighting, a marble sink, an antique serving station from England, and the original cupola. French doors access out tothe huge yet private back yard, deck and hot tub. Among many details, you'll love the massive stone ceiling-to-floor fireplace with inlaid stained glass. Finished lower level/walk-out. Incredible!
