WASHTENAW COUNTY, MI – A lakeside retreat near Chelsea promises luxury and privacy for lovers of the outdoors.
The 2,600-square-foot custom-designed home built in 2019 at 811 Glazier Road near Chelsea features unique coastal architectural details and is capped with a lighthouse-style rotunda with a wrap-around balcony.
Listed at $2,200,000 by Realtor Mary Jo Hahn of The Bouma Group, the three-bedroom, four-bathroom ranch home on the shores of Cavanaugh Lake in Sylvan Township is MLive’s House of the Week. Homes of various styles and prices from across the state are showcased every Wednesday.
Those entering the home are greeted with a double-sided fireplace that connects the foyer and the main living space. An open concept floorpan on the main floor has the kitchen flow neatly into the living area and a separate dining area – all lit by wall-to-wall windows that look over the lake.
Black accents on the exposed supporting beams and doorways contrast with the bright interior to create a spacious feel. The home features heated flooring and a full-length Azek deck.
The modern kitchen features custom Amish-built cabinetry, Cambria quartz countertops, Sub-Zero and Thermador appliances and a generous center island with a built-in wine cooler.
The primary suite features access to the full-length deck as well as a spacious bath with his-and-hers sinks and an oversized walk-in shower.
The home’s upper level hosts the cupola – a circular room lined with windowed views of the surrounding property. Wood inlays in the center of the room form a compass ringed by the latitude and longitude of the property.
The home provides the luxury of a private lake house while also being close to Ann Arbor and Detroit, Hahn said.
The walk-out lower level includes an additional full kitchen with a bar and a family room that opens to a patio covered by the home’s deck. Two additional bedrooms offer views of the lake.
“If you like lake living and entertaining, that’s really what this is about,” Hahn said. “You’re right at lake level – a lot of these homes you have to walk down to the lake, but with this one you’re right there.”
Attached to the lower level family room is a spacious garage outfitted for a lover of the outdoors including an array of cedar closets and a fish-cleaning station. Just off the lower garage is a “whiskey shed” – a sort of three-season room heated by a gas fireplace that opens to the patio.
The home comes with 120 feet of frontage and a floating dock on the private access all sports lake. Two separate driveways lead to separate upper and lower level garages offering space for three vehicles. The upper driveway also is heated for easy winter access.
