About this home
Featured on a private drive at beautiful Houghton Lake, Michigan's largest inland lake, this extraordinary waterfront estate offers 75 feet of pristine river frontage with additional canal frontage on the opposite side, providing direct access to the sparkling waters of Houghton Lake. Across the river, panoramic views stretch over acres of untouched state land, creating a rare sense of privacy and natural beauty. Encompassing 3,772 square feet of refined living space, the residence features six-bedrooms, four-and-a-half-baths, thoughtfully designed for both grand entertaining and comfortable everyday living. The impressive 1,243-square-foot family room welcomes you with vaulted ceilings, ceramic flooring, enhanced by in-floor heat and a generous gaming area complimented by a sophisticated wet bar. Custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and remote-controlled electric blinds enhance both style and convenience, creating a warm yet upscale gathering space. The striking octagon two-story main living area offers 1,236 square feet and showcases sweeping panoramic views of water and woods from nearly every angle. The gourmet kitchen is beautifully appointed with granite countertops, a classic subway tile backsplash, custom cabinetry, and stainless-steel appliances. A high-end tongue-and-groove flooring flows seamlessly into the dining area and the impressive 21' x 24' living room, where a gas log fireplace provides an inviting focal point. The main-floor primary en suite offers a private retreat, with an independent temperature control, complete with an ADA-accessible bath, while a guest bath and laundry room add functionality to the elegant main floor layout. A stunning circular staircase leads to the equally spacious upper level, where five generously sized guest bedrooms and two full baths ensure ample accommodation for family and visitors. Designed for year-round comfort, the home is equipped with efficient four-zone boiler heating and central air conditioning. An oversized, attached heated garage offers exceptional versatility, complete with an overhead engine crane, while the expansive concrete driveway and parking area provide abundant space for vehicles and recreational equipment. Outdoor living is equally impressive, highlighted by a 900-square-foot stamped concrete patio overlooking the water-an ideal setting for sunset gatherings and riverside entertaining. A plastic dock with diving ladder and seawalls on both the river and canal sides enhance the property's waterfront functionality. With five-foot-deep river frontage and lawn irrigation system, every detail has been carefully considered. Architectural accents such as a charming cupola with a weathervane, a 30-foot flagpole, and two remote-controlled Sunsetter awnings complete this extraordinary offering. This exceptional waterfront residence combines architectural distinction, luxurious finishes, and unparalleled access to Michigan's largest inland lake-with the first time offering of this extraordinary lifestyle of relaxation, recreation, and refined lakeside living.
