On Lake Charlevoix, close to downtown Charlevoix and Lake Michigan. 4 bedroom, 4.5 bath, spacious and airy, lakefront home that sleeps 10 adults or 6 adults and 4 kids. Hot tub overlooking lake. Paddle boards and kayaks. Perfect for kids of all ages. Fully equipped executive home. Absolutely no smokers on property, no pets, and no parties.
We would like to open our lake house for the enjoyment of other families. Our property offers the best of all locations: on Lake Charlevoix, less than 5 min drive to downtown restaurants and shopping, 3 min from milk, a couple of minutes walk to Ferry Park with a beach, basketball and volleyball and 7 min drive to Lake Michigan. Charlevoix, with an airport that can accommodate private jets, is located close to other fun towns to visit: Petoskey (20 min), Harbor Springs (40 min), Boyne City (30 min) and Traverse City with an international airport (1 hour).
For downhill skiers and snowboarders, we are located right in the middle of great Michigan skiing: 25 minutes from Boyne Mountain, and 40 minutes from Boyne Highlands and Nub's Nob.
Our house is surrounded by arborvitae which creates a screen of privacy. We have a large front and back yard, and dock. Our dock is for lake access only. A huge deck lakeside features patio seating as well as dining for 8 under an umbrella covered table and a 8 person hot tub.
Our dock is not suitable nor sturdy enough for tethering boats or jet skis, however we are only one block from Irish Boat Shop, where you can rent a boat slip for just $1.75 per foot per night.
The house is air conditioned and has a sprinkler system which comes on around 4 a.m. so don’t leave towels on the grass!
Inside, the living and bath floor areas are tiled and all bedrooms and hallways are carpeted. The floor plan is open and spacious with cathedral ceilings, with above windows and below sliders both creating light and airiness. The living room has two leather sofas with two upholstered recliner chairs with a large screen TV. There is Roku; no cable. The dining room features a long wood table that seats 10 (and 4 padded folding stools for extra seating) for memorable family dinners recounting the day's activities. There is casual dining at the granite breakfast bar.
The kitchen is completely outfitted, even with a birthday sheet cake pan. The laundry off the kitchen has a Maytag Neptune washer and dryer as well as a utility sink.
Our king beds have the best mattresses ever; you will sleep so well! First floor primary bedroom is spacious, has a walk-in closet, private bath, and glass sliders onto deck and close access to the hot tub. There is a comfortable chair in case you want to get away from the group with a good book or watch TV. Primary bathroom offers a jet tub, a shower with the best water pressure ever, private toilet closet, and a double sink vanity.
First floor guest bedroom has a king bed, ceiling fan, and large, bi-fold closet. Large, full shower bathroom is adjacent to this bedroom.
