Welcome to 4583 Forest Avenue, where modern style, incredible entertaining spaces, and private Watkins Lake living come together. Tucked along a protected cove of the lake, this 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath home offers a more private waterfront setting while still giving you direct access to enjoy the lake. A small association fee also provides access to a beautiful neighborhood beach area, giving you even more ways to enjoy lake life.
Inside, the main level offers a bright, open flow designed for both everyday living and entertaining. One of the home's standout features is the spa-inspired full bath, complete with a steam shower and soaking tub—your own private retreat at home.
The outdoor spaces are just as impressive. A large yard, spacious deck, screened-in porch, covered entertaining area, and outdoor shower create multiple places to gather, relax, and enjoy Michigan summers. Two driveways provide abundant parking for guests, while two EV charging stations add a thoughtful modern convenience.
And then there's the basement. Designed for entertaining, this incredible space features a full game area with a pool table that stays with the home, plus an expansive wet bar complete with sink, dishwasher, and plenty of room for hosting.
Whether you're spending the day on Watkins Lake, gathering with friends on the deck, relaxing in the screened porch, unwinding in your spa bath, or hosting game night downstairs, 4583 Forest Avenue was made for enjoying life at home.
