Remarks and Miscellaneous

Public Remarks: Just Steps from the Sand — Your Turn-Key Miller Beach Retreat Awaits. Imagine arriving at your very own beach escape, where the hardest decision you'll make is whether to sip your morning coffee in the sunroom or stroll two minutes down the path to feel the Lake Michigan sand between your toes. This beautifully renovated home is truly turn-key, blending comfort, style, and opportunity. Whether you're seeking a primary residence, second home, or a ready-to-go Airbnb investment, this property offers the flexibility and charm to meet your lifestyle.

Two thoughtfully designed bathrooms ensure everyone has room to relax and refresh. A sunroom adds that perfect year-round nook for reading, working, or soaking in the natural light. With a detached garage for easy parking or storage, and a location that puts you literally steps from the beach path, this home checks every box — and then some. Whether you're here to relax, host, or invest, this is more than a house — it's a lifestyle waiting to welcome you.
