5484 Lakeshore Avenue Holland MI 49424 MLS #26015849

Welcome to the good life! This is the Holland retreat you’ve been waiting for. Just steps from Kouw Park and Lake Michigan beaches, down a dune grass-flanked driveway, and privately situated on nearly five acres, sits 5484 Lakeshore Avenue.

Custom built by Bouwkamp Builders, the home exudes timeless charm with subtle nods to European design. There is over 5,000 square feet of living space, and plenty of built-ins throughout to add both function and character. Quarter-sawn oak floors flow across the main level, anchored by an Old World-style masonry fireplace in the kitchen that rises through all three floors–creating a stunning architectural centerpiece. The fireplace also includes a pizza oven, perfect for gatherings! Host your guests with ease, the kitchen features a large center island plus an additional prep island with a copper sink, all within a layout that accommodates both large and small events. The family room off the kitchen brings the outside in–wait for the magnolia tree to bloom each spring, enjoy the green hues of summer, the vibrant oranges or reds of fall, and cozy up next to the fire while you look out over snow covered trees in winter.

Upstairs, you’ll find five spacious bedrooms, 3 full baths, and a refined library. The primary suite offers generous closet space, dedicated shoe storage, and a clawfoot tub perfectly positioned to take in serene wooded views.

The walkout lower level was made for hosting! Your guests will love the heated floors underfoot, and you’ll love the dedicated kitchen space. This area also includes a large exercise area, big enough to house multiple pieces of equipment.

Outdoor living was a priority in the design. Enjoy quiet mornings and relaxed evenings from the screened porch, while the wraparound hardscaping provides a low-maintenance, elevated setting to take in the surrounding natural beauty.


Offering privacy, proximity to Lake Michigan, and room to both spread out and come together–this is West Michigan living at its finest.
