It does exist! Imagine a thoughtfully designed cottage home with a grand log beam entry perched over a gin-clear, glacially formed lake that teems with trout and loons. It would have an awe-inspiring great room with floor-to-ceiling glass welcoming the lake inside and an impressive stone fireplace. The kitchen would be designed for entertaining with a huge pantry and a large island, all wide open to the dining and living areas. Of course, main-level living would be a must with a main-floor primary suite, laundry, and guest room, as well as a fully finished and heated attached garage. Oh, how could there not be a three-season porch for enjoying the sunsets, especially if you could also enter from the primary bedroom! What if it also had a wide-open gathering space on the lower level for playing games and making a little noise that opened to a broad lakeside patio and yard? The landscape would have to be equally as stunning with lots of natural stone and well-designed paths and driveways, but it would also have to blend in with the spectacular rolling hardwood forest and serene lake frontage that surround it. Surround it with thousands of acres of public land with groomed ATV and snowmobile trails in the heart northern Michigan's recreational paradise, but it would need to be within a reasonable drive to quality dining, shopping, and healthcare. There would have to be a large barn with high ceilings and entry doors on either end to keep the boats and toys out of the weather. If we're getting picky, there'd also be a heated workshop close to the house for winter projects. If this aligns with the dream property that's been in your mind's eye, look no further than this truly exceptional northern Michigan masterpiece on Kalkaska County's North Blue Lake.
