Perched atop Miller Hill on four private, wooded acres, this extraordinary home commands sweeping panoramic views of Glen Lake, Sleeping Bear Point, and Lake Michigan—all just minutes from the shops, restaurants, and beaches of Glen Arbor. Equally suited as a year-round residence or an exceptional northern Michigan retreat, this is a property of rare beauty, privacy, and timeless appeal. A 19th-century mapmaker described this hilltop as "the finest view in northern Michigan," and it's easy to understand why. Custom built in the 1970s and lovingly maintained by only its second owners since 1993, the home has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its distinctive architectural character. At the heart of the home is a spectacular, light-filled chef's kitchen designed for gathering. A six-burner gas cooktop, oversized center island, abundant custom cabinetry, and walls of windows create an inviting space equally suited for everyday living and effortless entertaining. The spacious first-floor primary suite offers comfort and convenience, complemented by tranquil water views and a beautifully updated spa-inspired en-suite bath. The inviting living room features expansive western vistas and a charming wood-burning cast-iron stove, flowing seamlessly into the adjoining dining room to create an ideal setting for holidays, celebrations, and memorable evenings with family and friends. Upstairs, two generous guest bedrooms share a custom-designed full bath accented with handcrafted Portuguese tile. Outdoor living is equally captivating. A spacious deck and established perennial gardens provide peaceful places to relax, entertain, and savor spectacular sunsets and the ever-changing beauty of northern Michigan. Offering three bedrooms, two-and-a-half baths, a two-car garage, exceptional privacy, and one of the region's most celebrated vistas, this home has been the backdrop for decades of treasured family memories, all of which can now belong to you.
