Come see this exceptional, custom-built home with the best of everything in the wonderful community of the New Neighborhood. (see attached documents for this unique concept.) This home offers a perfect blend of space, light, and thoughtful design in a prime location just a short walk from the charming Village of Empire and its stunning beach, or hop on nearby Heritage Trail to ride through Sleeping Bear Dunes National Park.. The main floor features a spacious primary suite, ensuring comfort and convenience, while the upper level boasts two additional bedrooms and a full bath. The kitchen has exceptional appliances, an inviting meal prep area and even a pantry with a screen door! The living and dining areas share vaulted ceilings, lots of windows and a two-sided fireplace for coziness. Accessed from the dining room, a charming screened porch overlooks a nicely landscaped and private backyard oasis. Here, you'll find the perfect spot to relax and unwind either on the secluded screened porch enjoying those summer sounds or with a s'more at the bonfire pit patio. The beautifully finished lower level includes a large family room, ideal for movie and TV gatherings, with ample unfinished storage space for all your needs. Situated on a lot that faces the common area/park, this home also includes the adjacent corner lot—offering extra space for gardening, enhanced privacy, or future possibilities. There is an irrigations system for both lots and a whole house Generator for your peace of mind. Many extra features and details are included in the documents. See the virtual tour link below pictures. Enjoy the best of both worlds: a peaceful retreat with easy access to all that the Empire Beach, Sleeping Bear Dunes and the nearby gorgeous Glen Lake has to offer! We are going to keep this open and available for showings until May 15 at 5pm when all offers will be due, to give those from out of town a chance to come and view this special property.
