Every sunset will be yours. Invest in this Northern Michigan waterfront home, where it still feels like Northern Michigan! Easy maintenance and instant fun—right outside your kitchen window. This exquisite, turnkey, sunset-facing Manistee Lake waterfront home offers approximately 4,700 square feet with up to six bedrooms, yet lives comfortably for just two. Relaxed, elegant, and thoughtfully designed for lake life, it offers the amenities, efficiencies, and low-maintenance features buyers expect from newer construction. Situated on Manistee Lake, an 860-acre all-sports lake, you’ll enjoy exceptional boating, fishing, swimming, and four-season recreation while escaping the crowds found on many of Northern Michigan’s more heavily traveled lakes. Built by Brian Andersen, this home showcases rock-solid construction, exceptional sound and weather protection, thoughtful design, and meticulous care. It is so remarkably well maintained, it is genuinely difficult to tell anyone has ever lived here. Designed for entertaining, the granite kitchen features a large island with two sinks, a waterfront serving bar ideal for gatherings, and an impressive 10′ x 6′ butler’s pantry offering abundant prep space and storage. Flexible living areas provide up to six bedrooms, or transform the waterfront loft into a stunning home office, studio, or creative retreat. The full unfinished walkout lower level is already framed and ready for future expansion. Hot-water heat combined with ducted forced air provides year-round comfort and efficiency. Designed with low-maintenance living in mind, this home is equally suited as a full-time residence or a seasonal Northern Michigan retreat that can be easily closed up for the winter. Two garages provide parking for up to four vehicles, while dog lovers will appreciate the custom fenced dog yard and dedicated dog-bathing area already in place. Turn the key, unpack your bags, and start enjoying Manistee Lake. The sunsets and the Northern Michigan life
