The standout kitchen and butler's pantry is a haven for culinary enthusiasts, boasting upscale appliances, bespoke cabinetry, and a Calcutta marble island that effortlessly merges style with practicality. The breakfast room offers a cozy and luminous spot to kickstart your day and enjoy your morning coffee. Ascend the grand staircase to discover an elegant library with a marble fireplace and four generously appointed ensuite bedrooms. The primary suite is a sanctuary with a dramatic wall of windows, a sitting area, built-ins, and a spacious bath. Each ensuite bedroom on this level provides a private retreat, ensuring that every member of the household enjoys personal space and relaxation plus many offer enchanting glimpses of Lake Michigan. Prepare to be awed by the third level, a true haven for family entertainment. Featuring an expansive great room with soaring vaulted ceilings, a convenient kitchenette, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath, this versatile space adds an extra layer of possibilities to the home. The lower level is a fabulous retreat of its own, boasting an extra-wide staircase, high ceilings, a welcoming recreation room with a stone fireplace, a full bath, cedar closet, and ample storage space. The current owners have made substantial investments in updating the home's mechanical systems, plumbing, windows, and more, ensuring a modern and comfortable living experience.
