Property Description
LAKE MICHIGAN BEACH RIGHTS! Located just steps from the marina and moments from private beaches, this 4-bed, 3-full bath home was extensively renovated in 2024. Offering the peace of mind of essentially new construction, with all-new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, roof, siding, windows and GARAGE. Designed for both elegant entertaining and relaxed lake living, the home showcases premium finishes throughout, including rich hardwood flooring, vaulted ceilings, designer fixtures, chef-caliber appliances, and a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly from the gourmet kitchen—anchored by an impressive island—to inviting gathering spaces, a wet bar and coffee station, flexible bonus areas, and a finished lower level. French doors extend to the spacious year-round sunroom, creating the perfect setting for morning coffee, evening cocktails, or hosting family and friends after a day at the beach. Sidewalk access to Lake Michigan beaches, a neighborhood park, and the marina's open-access entrance directly across the street. Stroll to New Buffalo's celebrated downtown, boutique shops, galleries, restaurants, and waterfront attractions. For Chicago homeowners seeking a seamless weekend escape, Amtrak service is just steps away, offering daily direct access to and from the city. Whether you're searching for an upscale second home, a sophisticated beach getaway, or a lock-and-leave lakeshore retreat, this rare offering combines luxury, convenience, and an unparalleled New Buffalo lifestyle. In a location where opportunities are limited and demand remains strong, this is a property to be enjoyed for generations.
