Whether you're looking for somewhere to spend weekends or to wake up every day, this unique property is part north woods cabin, part lakeside retreat, and part entertainer's dream just a quick and scenic drive from Ann Arbor, Tecumseh, or Jackson. Nestled on over 12 acres just north of Hayes State Park with frontage on a private stocked 5-acre lake, you'll enjoy the main house overlooking the water, a state-of-the-art luxury pool house, two pole barns, a private pond, and so much more. Enjoy the breathtaking views outside on the spacious deck or inside from every level of the home. The main level offers a living room with gas fireplace, dining area with woodstove, and chef's kitchen with stainless steel appliances and multiple pantries. The main-level primary bedroom has a generous walk-in closet and doorwall to a private deck. A full bathroom and laundry/utility room complete this floor. The views are just as amazing from the open second floor with its own loft family room and en suite bedroom with tons of storage. Up the spiral staircase you'll find another space that could be a bunk room for the kids or a private home office. Next door, you'll be able to enjoy summer all year round in the nearly 3000 square foot pool house. This impressive space boasts a full kitchen, gym, 8-person spa, additional bedroom and full bathroom, and ample dining and lounging space all warmed by radiant heating around the resort-style pool with motorized cover. One pole barn provides parking space for up to 4 cars on concrete, while the other can be used to store your boat and other equipment. Enjoy the outdoors with walking trails, gardens, firepit, and more. Tons of upgrades and updates, including whole-house water filtration, newer water heater, generator, two owned propane tanks, and commercial grade heating and dehumidification in the pool house.
