About this property

Luxury Waterfront home, West Grand Traverse Bay. Japanese soaking tub,Kayaks.

This unique and stunning, two-story architectural gem was designed to take full advantage of the natural setting on West Grand Traverse Bay. It has been featured in numerous design magazines and on HGTV. The spacious accommodations offer stunning bay views from almost every point in the house.

The huge great room has 20-foot glass floor-to-ceiling water views! It’s like being in a terrarium. Large, open fireplace. Huge 4K HD flat screen TV with surround sound.

The kitchen is state of the art with black granite countertops. Equipped with a steam oven (perfect for fish and veggies) and Sub-zero refrigerator/freezer drawers. Hardwood floors throughout with radiant heat. This modern built home offers thick concrete walls that keep the inside comfortable. You will want to explore every inch of this ultra cool house.

Spa bathroom is located off the main level and features a two-person Jacuzzi Japanese hammered metal soaking tub and a very spacious shower/steam room. Perfect after a day of biking on the TART trail, kayaking from the shore, or visiting the many nearby wineries and restaurants. Relax with a glass of wine next to the fireplace which extends through to the soaking tub. Stereo system and WIFI.

A California king platform bed lies under a high, curved, wood ceiling upstairs. This bed was designed to easily roll out onto the screened-in porch. (Winner of the Architectural Detail of the Year Award.) Let the sound of the waves lull you to sleep in the cool night air. Off the bedroom, is a Precore Elliptical exerciser and large balcony for relaxing with that morning cup of coffee. Bathroom/shower and washer/dryer upstairs as well.

Outdoors, enjoy the deck for gas grilling. Walk down to the water’s edge where a screened gazebo provides the perfect setting to watch the spectacular moonrise over the bay. There is also seating at the shoreline. Two kayaks are included with life jackets. The bay faces east and offers beautiful sunrise and moonrise views. Grass goes to the shoreline. Need something special for your stay? Feel free to ask and if we can arrange it we will. Neighbor has three friendly dogs that may greet you on your arrival.

Centrally located a mere 8 minutes north of downtown Traverse City and 8 minutes south of Suttons Bay in the heart of the Leelanau Peninsula wine country. Shady Lane, Mawby, Ciccone, and Black Star Farms are just a few of the vineyards that are minutes away. The Hop Lot Brewery is just up the road. You will not be disappointed when you visit up north.

No pets allowed. NOT suitable for children.

Great long weekend
This place is truly unique. We had a wonderful time during our stay. Great views of the bay both upstairs and downstairs. Watched the moon rise at night and the early morning sunrise. If you want to treat yourselves to an amazing experience, book it, you won’t be disappointed.
