The best beach and boathouse on the North Shore! Completed in 2001, this magnificent, one-of-a-kind estate overlooking Lake Michigan exemplifies what can be built today with detail & craftsmanship from the past. The stunning great room was designed by Alfred Granger in 1928. Stuart Cohen designed a 6 bedroom new home around the historic great rm. After 8 yrs of fastidious design & construction, the carved limestone, brick & timber home was completed in 2001.
Much of the woodwork & lighting was designed & fabricated in England. The landscaped bluff, an engineering feat taking 5 yrs to complete, was developed w/stone paths, steps & terraces leading to a 2,500 SF heated boat house & terrace & approximately 400′ of protected beach. This 9,097 sq. ft. 6 bedroom, 6.2 bath estate also features a deGiulio kitchen, handsome library & 2nd floor office. The walk-out LL includes a home theater, exercise room, & wet bar-all w/lake views! 3 car garage & more. Enjoy entertaining in this spectacular estate w/mesmerizing lake views & beach like no other! Perfection!
