Every evening, as the sun slips below the horizon, Grand Traverse Bay becomes the centerpiece of this remarkable home, painting the sky a different palette of colors each night. Perched on a private, wooded acre on the Old Mission Peninsula, this architecturally designed home captures breathtaking sunsets while offering 3,300 sq. ft. of beautifully designed living space. Vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and warm hardwood flooring fill the home with natural light while framing picturesque bay and woodland views throughout the main living areas.
