A Ranch-Style Retreat, Steps from the Docks
Tucked inside Marina Shores, Portage’s gated lakefront enclave, this 4-bedroom ranch delivers more than 3,000 sq ft of finished space—plenty of room for family visits, hobbies, or simply stretching out:
| Main Level | Lower Level |
|---|---|
| • Sunlit great room with gas fireplace | • 30’-wide recreation room—big-screen ready |
| • Chef’s kitchen: granite, island seating, stainless appliances | • Guest bedroom + full bath |
| • Primary suite: trey ceiling, oversized walk-in, spa bath with soaking tub & glass-tile shower | • Large storage room (or workshop) |
| • Two additional bedrooms & full bath | |
| • Main-floor laundry with custom cabinetry |
Add in an attached 2-car garage, and day-to-day living stays completely on one floor—ideal for aging in place.
Lock-and-Leave Convenience

-
🍽️ Dine waterfront at the on-site yacht club
-
🚉 Catch the South Shore (walking distance) for a quick ride into Chicago
-
🚗 Skip the lawn mower altogether and road-trip to grandkids or warmer shores
