Overview

Description

A Dune Acres home of notable architectural provenance sited high in the treetops with dazzling views just 250 feet from Lake Michigan is a rare prospect to regard. Built in 1936 by Hetherington Architects, it highlights familiar characteristics of the Chicago architect's earlier works. The 1933 World's Fair Cypress Log Cabin, now part of the Indiana Dunes National Park Century of Progress Architectural Historic District, in neighboring Beverly Shores is one example. The town of Dune Acres celebrates its Centennial this year; just 165 homes built in its storied 100-year history. Poised on a sparkling crescent of sand carved by grace and geology at the southern tip of Lake Michigan, Dune Acres is distinguished by vast woodlands, marshes, rolling hills, dunes, beaches and breathtaking views all within the National Park boundary. Imaginative refreshed floor plans are shown on site offering a nod to the past with refreshed inspired suggestions for contemporary living spaces.
