Near to pristine Lake Michigan beaches, the Heritage Trail, and in desirable Leland School District, this expansive residence is a delightful Leelanau County retreat. Located in Harbour Ridge, this neighborhood is a haven of abundant meadows and forests, and shares adjacency to the National Lakeshore. Here you'll enjoy tranquility amidst the sounds of native birdsong and the sights of grassy fields and towering hardwoods. Step inside this breathtaking living space, designed to bring the outside in. Soaring ceilings and elevated north-facing windows frame the surrounding forest, creating the feel of a leafy treehouse in the summer and a magical snow globe with seasonal lake-views in the winter. A wood-burning, fieldstone fireplace and custom built-ins anchor the living room; while a luxurious kitchen serves as the heart of the home, and includes a generous island, bar with counter-height seating, and a dedicated pantry area with a wine bar, coffee and tea station, and discreet appliance storage. The kitchen flows effortlessly into a formal dining room, sun-drenched four-season room, and outdoor dining deck - altogether, a wonderful space for entertaining. Retreat to the main-level primary suite - a private oasis featuring a spacious, spa-like ensuite bath with walk-in closet, a classic clawfoot tub, and a custom-tiled shower with dual showerheads. Downstairs, the home continues to impress with a spacious family room offering a second fireplace and kitchenette, and opening toward a covered patio. Two spacious bedrooms enjoy oversized windows and walk-in closets, and share a well-appointed, full bathroom. A versatile bonus room rounds out the lower level, making an ideal home office, fitness center, or overflow guest space. Outside, native flora surrounds the home, keeping yard maintenance to a minimum; while a hidden grassy clearing acts as a traditional yard, perfect for outdoor play. In all, an exceptional residence ready for your year-round stay or seasonal visits!
