Property Description

Pure Michigan at its most refined—set along the crystal-clear shores of Lake Missaukee, this 3768 sq ft-2018 Custom-Built 5-bedroom, 3-bath Lakefront Estate offers 110 feet of private frontage with breathtaking, unobstructed panoramic views in a serene, secluded up-north setting. Meticulously crafted with exceptional attention to detail, the home showcases rich hickory hardwood flooring, quartz surfaces, and exquisite custom cabinetry by a skilled local cabinet maker—seamlessly carried throughout the kitchen, foyer, and on-suite spa-inspired primary bath. Walls of 9-foot windows with casements fill the home with natural light while perfectly framing the lake. The open-concept living space, anchored by a gas fireplace, offers a refined yet inviting setting. The upper level serves as a private sanctuary, featuring a luxurious primary suite with its own laundry, along with a secondary bedroom or office and full bath. The lower-level functions as a private guest retreat—offering three bedrooms, a full bath, full kitchen, spacious living area, separate laundry, and ample storage—with walk-out access to the sandy shoreline. Built for comfort and efficiency, the home includes a high-efficiency 100,000 BTU 90% natural gas furnace with central air, heated concrete basement floors, on-demand hot water, water softener, and a 5-inch sewer drain. Flush ceilings and above-drywall venting enhance space and clean design. The ~1,000 sq ft insulated garage accommodates three vehicles plus recreational storage. A rare feature—the north side of the property allows direct drive access to the water’s edge, complete with power for a lift or shoreline lighting. **Important: This can be a full time residence or a short term rental. No restrictions on this property. Enjoy Lake Missaukee—one of Michigan’s 25 largest inland lakes—known for its vibrant all-sports lifestyle. Just minutes from Lake City with easy boat or car access to dining and shopping.
