Property Description

Stately all-brick Georgian boasts 6 bedrooms and 6.1 baths in Villa Turicum, blocks away from Lake Michigan. The well-maintained .94 acre property features a private rear yard with mature trees, perennial beds, and a large deck. With its classic center-entry design and grand two-story foyer, this full amenity home has a great floor plan, complete with traditional spaces, tall ceilings, stunning moldings, and 4 wood-burning fireplaces. Oak hardwood flooring is throughout the living room, dining room, library, family room, and upper 5 bedrooms. Entertain guests in the formal living room with its floor-to-ceiling windows and beautiful marble-detailed fireplace mantle, or relax in the spacious family room with brick wood-burning fireplace and parquet wood floor, perfect for casual living and entertaining. The kitchen has a sunny breakfast area with views overlooking the gorgeous yard, a workstation, and a walk-in pantry. There are five bedrooms on the 2nd level including a sizable primary suite with lovely fireplace, two closets, a dressing area, and bathroom. There are four additional family bedrooms and two full bathrooms on this level. An extensive 3-story addition (1999-2001) includes a 1st-floor suite with grand bedroom featuring new carpeting, two full bathrooms, a walk-in closet, kitchenette, sitting room, full laundry, and 2nd-floor office/loft/playroom. Natural light and views of the gardens make the English basement A++ space with a large recreation room/guest suite and a full bathroom with jetted tub. This home has approximately 5,961 square feet above grade and another 3,500 square feet in the lower level. The double-hung windows were replaced with Renewal by Anderson windows, and the front sidewalk was replaced with bluestone installed on a secure concrete base. This gem has been well-maintained and is ready for your decorating ideas!
