Live among nature in this 1.5 story home that was designed and built by a local master craftsman. Much of the frame and joists were harvested locally and add to the abundance of character throughout that includes shed dormers, two outdoor decks, covered crushed stone patio and 5.41 acres of hardwoods. Spacious kitchen with custom stone and tile backsplash and flooring, beautiful cherry cabinetry accentuated by a wall of transom windows and ceiling joists. Main floor bedroom and bathroom.

Each of the upstairs bedrooms incorporates the interesting rooflines with built-in beds, custom woodwork, doors, and storage cubbies. The fourth bedroom upstairs has an adjacent bunk room, perfect for overflow guests or additional storage. The house was carefully situated against a berm and faces south to assist with temperature moderation in all seasons. An artesian well onsite provides a playground for wildlife habitat. Conveniently located 5 miles north of Suttons Bay.
