Turnkey, exquisite Manistee Lake waterfront home offering 4,700 square feet and up to six bedrooms. Relaxed, elegant, and built for lake life, this property has been cherished by the same family since the 1940s. Generations of boating, swimming, walking to the store, and now strolling to the beloved Manistee Lake Bakery have made this a true family legacy property. The original grandmother's cottage was removed and replaced with a masterfully designed and built home by Brian Andersen. Rock-solid construction, sound and weather protection, thoughtful design, and exceptional care make this home feel nearly untouched. It is hard to tell anyone has ever lived here, it is that well maintained. Designed for gathering, the granite kitchen features two sinks in the island, a waterfront bar perfect for serving a crowd, and a 10 x 6 butler's pantry for extra prep and storage. Flexible living offers up to six bedrooms, or use the waterfront loft as a beautiful office or creative space. The full unfinished walkout basement is framed and ready to finish. Hot water heat plus ducted forced air add comfort and efficiency. Low maintenance by design, this home is easy to enjoy year-round or close up and leave for the winter. Two garages offer up to four indoor parking spaces, and dog lovers will appreciate the custom dog yard and bathing area already in place. Manistee Lake is an 860-acre, crystal-clear, all-sports lake known for easy swimming, boating, and peaceful summer evenings where Taps can be heard across the water. Stunning yet humble, elegant yet easy, this is a lakefront estate built for family, friends, dogs, and decades of memories.
