Property Description

Settle into country life on a bucolic 71-acre estate located minutes from New Buffalo, Michigan City and Lake Michigan beaches. Enter the 1880s lovingly restored farmhouse and feel the charm of the last century with sun-filled large rooms and hardwood floors. The living room and dining room combined "great room" with gracefully arched windows leads to the comfortable and airy family room with a fireplace. Walk through the French doors and enjoy early morning coffee and listen to birdsong in the screened porch which overlooks the inground pool and expanse of lawn surrounded by old shade trees. The spacious eat-in kitchen has a cathedral ceiling and invites family gatherings. A powder room is nearby, and a main floor bedroom offers multiple uses. The craftsman staircase leads to the second floor and the spacious primary bedroom with walk-in closet. A second bedroom looks out over the back lawn. The full bath features a Kohler Jacuzzi soaking tub. The third floor loft with three large skylights is presently used as an artist's studio. Above the heated 3-car garage is a fully equipped sunny loft-style apartment with a full kitchen, eating area, living area, sleeping alcove, bedroom, and bathroom. The pool is surrounded by a large deck and ideal for entertaining. 21 of the 71 acres are forest conservation land and include a large pond with wildlife and hiking trails. Additionally two 2,000-square-foot buildings can continue to be used for business or retail as variance rights remain with the property. These two buildings can be converted into two new homesteads. Also, two 1,000-square-foot buildings now used for storage are suitable for multiple uses including conversion into Additional Dwelling Spaces (ADU). This estate offers all the modern conveniences but invites a feeling of tranquility and connection to a simpler time, and in the meadow you can still see the Milky Way and spend the night stargazing.
