Set within The Preserve at Bay Harbor, one of Northern Michigan's most private and sought-after gated communities, this exceptional estate sits on 125 feet of deeded Lake Michigan shoreline with direct beach access steps from the walkout lower level. Water views greet you from the primary suite's private balcony each morning, and by evening the great room's two-story windows catch the last light fading across the lake behind the quartzite fireplace. This is a home that was built to be full of life. The island kitchen opens to the main floor living space with the kind of easy flow that makes a dinner for twenty feel no different than a quiet Sunday morning for two. A fully outfitted butler's pantry handles the behind-the-scenes work of hosting, and a second kitchen on the lower level adds the depth that long summer weeks and holiday gatherings require. Dedicated laundry on the main and lower levels, along with dishwashers on both, mean that the logistics of an extended stay simply disappear into the background. The primary suite offers dual walk-in closets, a generous bath with a soaking tub and walk-in tile shower. Upstairs and on the walkout lower level, additional bedroom suites and flexible living areas give every guest their own space to settle into. Patios and balconies on each level keep the lake present throughout the day and well into the evening. Beyond the gates, the Village of Bay Harbor and all it offers is just minutes away, from world-class golf and dining to the marina and the energy of a community that draws people back summer after summer. This is the kind of property that becomes the gathering place for generations. Seller is a licensed Realtor in the State of Michigan.

The billiards room and wet bar provide ample entertainment options, while the bonus room over the three-car attached garage could be easily converted to multiple bedrooms or a dedicated in-law suite.

Relaxation won't be hard to find as you gaze out at the sweeping Lake Michigan views that make this one of the most picturesque homesites in all of Bay Harbor. 140' of private lake frontage can be easily accessed from the large backyard that slopes gently from home to shore.

Life at Bella Vista is about soaking up all the best Northern Michigan has to offer, including the privacy and luxury of life in the Bay Harbor community. Dining, shopping, and social events are all just a short GEM car away. Come discover a lifestyle unlike any other at a property unlike any other!
