Dream lakefront home on tranquil Briggs Lake - where quiet mornings, kayak paddles, and wildlife will be the soundtrack to your life. This custom built home offers 60 feet of waterfront views with a boulder seawall, three tiers of expansive decks, and unobstructed views that stretch across serene landscape. Sip coffee on the upper deck or host friends by the water’s edge, you’ll find a space that matches your every mood. Inside, this home is every bit as vibrant as the lifestyle it offers. With fun, thoughtful updates throughout, you’ll find spaces designed for both comfort and character — including stunning wide-plank flooring, shaker style cabinets, butcher block counters, and stainless steel appliances in the bright eat-in kitchen. Four pristine bedrooms on second story and fully renovated full bathrooms on second level (2021 & 2024) and a stylish half bath/main floor laundry combo (2020). Finished walk-out basement is complete with a wet bar and a separate exercise/utility room. Enjoy views from every level spanning over 1,000 sqft and three-tiers of outdoor deck space. Extra deep 28' heated attached garage + asphalt driveway allowing for 5 vehicles. Additional notable upgraded improvements include 60R value insulation added to attic, whole-house water softener and filtration system, and RO system at kitchen sink. Launch access to all-sports Island Lake and Kensington Metropark are just a short stroll away - giving you additional 8,000 acres to enjoy just a few minutes away! Imagine evenings around the firepit, early morning swims, or winters watching snowfall across the frozen lake. This isn’t just a home — it’s a year-round retreat built for memory-making. Schedule your showing today! Per Township, Briggs Lake is all sports, with a standing 'gentlemen's agreement' for no motor, no wake.
