    Beautiful, fully restored 1912 Art and Crafts Bungalow comes FULLY furnished and is TRULY TURN KEY and ready for you to enjoy! Thoughtful design, rich craftsmanship, beautiful wood floors and elegant, true to the time, décor bears witness to days gone by. Relax in the private backyard setting or take the 3 minute walk to the many nearby shops, restaurants and marinas that the White Lake area is renowned for. Art festivals, live bands, and world class sailing and boating on White Lake and Lake Michigan are all within your grasp here, in a locale that is well on its way to establishing itself as one of Western Michigan's premier living and vacationing destinations. This former successful bed and breakfast has been meticulously well cared for with many updates- from the peak of the new roof (2019) to the floor of the functional basement, there has not been a pipe, a wire, or a cable that has not been upgraded or replaced with the greatest care. Completely renovated HVAC systems. Modern insulation. Double 50 gallon hot water heaters, new in 2022. Cat 5 hardwired Internet. Copper plumbing. Updated triple pane Pella Windows occupy the upper story and half of the main floor. The well crafted original windows have accompanying screens and storms. Even electric vehicle owners find unique forethought here with a Tesla certified "destination charger" mounted on a spacious 2 car garage in the back. Call 616.970.6446 for your private tour.
