Property Description

There are lakefront properties, and then there are places that feel entirely their own. Privately set along coveted West Day Forest Road, this exceptional Little Glen Lake retreat offers a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and an extraordinary waterfront setting. Set on approximately one acre with 100 feet of private frontage, and a gorgeous boulder wall along the sand, the property begins with a long, beautifully landscaped approach framed by mature trees, lush lawn, and gardens before opening to the residence and lake beyond. Built in 2019 and encompassing approximately 3,700 square feet, the home was thoughtfully designed to embrace its surroundings. Nearly every room captures beautiful water views, while all five bedrooms feature en-suite baths. Generous living spaces open naturally to a covered porch, adjoining deck, and lower patio, creating an effortless setting for both intimate gatherings and entertaining. A custom bunk room comfortably sleeps up to 12 guests and adds a memorable element for family and friends. Beyond the home, the landscape gently unfolds toward Little Glen Lake, where a broad grassy lawn meets 100 feet of beautiful, hard-packed sandy shoreline. A long private dock extends into the lake, offering an exceptional vantage point toward the Sleeping Bear Dunes and spectacular sunsets. Few experiences are more quintessentially Northern Michigan than ending the day at the end of your dock as the sun settles beyond the dunes. A beautifully finished garage with epoxy flooring and a dedicated recreation and gaming area adds functionality to this exceptional retreat. Just minutes from downtown Glen Arbor and Empire, the property offers easy access to Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, the M-22 scenic corridor, the M-22 Bike Trail, Lake Michigan beaches, and the areaâ€™s celebrated restaurants, shops, and outdoor experiences.
