Just 90 minutes from Chicago, this is the Lake Michigan retreat you've been waiting for. Set on 8 private acres with 500' of pristine shoreline in St. Joseph, it offers the rare balance of accessibility & complete escape. Custom Engelsma-designed home makes an unforgettable first impression with dramatic gabled rooflines, stone accents, board-&-batten siding, & expansive walls of glass framing panoramic lake views. Inside, the great room soars beneath vaulted ceilings & flows into a chef's kitchen featuring commercial-grade appliances, a generous island, custom wood cabinetry, & a walk-in pantry. 5- bedrooms span 3-levels, including a main-floor primary suite, 3 upper-level suites with private baths surrounding an open loft, & a lower-level guest ste alongside a professional golf simulator. Planned bluff improvements & a private cart path create effortless lake access, while proposed enhancements-including a pool, screened porch, & outdoor shower that can be tailored to your vision.
