Overview

Description

A Gem within a Gem: Nestled along the lapping shores of Lake Michigan and bordered by a wildlife park, this historic home is changing hands for only the 3rd time in its nearly 80 year history. Located in the quaint, and in-the-know town of Dune Acres - 1 hour from Chicago, experience 'lake life' at its finest. The original owners envisioned a home constructed to compliment nature; subtly luxurious materials of limestone, cypress, copper, redwood, and steel framed windows, expertly crafted to stand the test of time. For the purist at heart, the home remains in nearly its original condition - waiting for the next keyholder to lovingly preserve, restore or expand on its greatness.To note: there is a path of stairs winding down the dune for direct beach access.
