The Ultimate Harbor Springs Retreat Experience the perfect blend of privacy and proximity in this stunningly updated home. Located just two miles from downtown Harbor Springs and nestled along M-119, a Heritage Highway, known as the Tunnel of Trees; this property offers coveted Lake Michigan views and deeded water access. The interior shines with a chef’s kitchen featuring granite countertops, a social island, and premium stainless appliances. Polished stone tile flows through the remodeled baths and kitchen, while the sunroom—complete with vaulted ceilings and cork flooring—invites you out to a peaceful patio. The main floor offers a cozy living room with a gas fireplace, a primary and guest bedroom, a beautiful primary bath and a half bath, complemented by two additional bedrooms upstairs, with a full bath. Luxury meets practicality, with a full basement that has ample storage space, zoned heating (two new furnaces), and an exterior whole-house generator. The exterior is a masterpiece of rolling lawns, brick paver driveway, a firepit, and a charming "card house." A three-car detached garage with an insulated shed ensures ample space for all your Northern Michigan gear.
