Situated on over 4 acres of wooded land, this home offers unparalleled privacy and is located directly across from the Wau-Ke-Na Preserve on Lake Michigan, combining serene seclusion with convenient access to natural beauty and sandy shoreline. The flexible floor plan allows you to decide whether to use this home as one property or as a spacious home with a separate guest suite, complete with its own 2 bedrooms, living and kitchen area, and a screen porch. Currently used as a 6-bedroom home with 4 full baths and one-half bath, the main living area features an open, welcoming space with vaulted ceilings, open to the kitchen area and one of the dining areas.

The list of amenities is endless. This property is designed to create lasting memories with friends and family during all four seasons. It's a must-see opportunity! The current owners have built a substantial short-term rental business with excellent revenue, and they have decided to allow the new owner the ability to love and enjoy this home and the endless memories it offers. Wau-Ke-Na, the largest of SW Michigan's Land Conservancy's preserves, offers forest, fields, streams, ponds, bluffs, and wonderful Lake Michigan. There is a trail just across the street where you can walk and enjoy nature at its best. A short walk takes you to Lake Michigan, and just down the road is a 2nd public Lake Michigan access with a park and picnic area for your enjoyment. Don't miss out on this exceptional opportunity!
