From the moment one enters this Lake Michigan island home, it is clear-an extreme level of craftsmanship was put into its construction. Coffered ceilings, hardwood custom cabinetry, marble countertops, solid maple and tile flooring, radiant in-floor heat, custom stained glass windows, and restored antique lighting are a few features. For efficiency there is wind and solar power with battery storage, and a geothermal HVAC system that has been meticulously maintained, along with the rest of the house. Before you think this home takes itself too seriously, the confessional closet stores the audio system, the painted ceiling portrays the sunrise and sunset, and there are touches of whimsy and charm at every turn. The kitchen is sunny and thoughtfully designed with the appliances hidden in cabinets, with plenty of counter space and a large bar, and antique steel ceiling. There are two offices on the main floor, one with cherry cabinetry, the other is beautifully finished in birdseye maple. The offices could also be used as bedrooms with one having a door to the adjoining bathroom. The primary suite has a lovely tile and marble bathroom, and an enviable walk in closet. You will love the sunroom that runs the length of the house on the water side, with doors leading out from all of the adjoining rooms. Two wood stoves, keep the home cozy in cooler months. Upstairs you will find two more ensuite bedrooms, and a loft sitting area overlooking the lake. While this is a spacious home with room for everyone, there are still intimate gathering spaces that make it feel comfortable. The owners built the basement for ample storage and maker spaces, including a wood shop, stained glass studio, and paint studio with an air compressor, and an air filtration system. The beautiful sandy beach has small rocks in the water. Close to town, but also very private, the Beaver Island Lodge offering fine dining is just down the road.
