Property Description

AN EXTRAORDINARY 140 FT OF WATERFRONT SANCTUARY ON WATKINS LAKE! Truly a one-of-a-kind property where architectural character, natural beauty, and botanical history come together on 0.78 acres of remarkable lakefront grounds. A breathtaking collection of rare trees, specimen plantings, and lush gardens surrounds 3 lake-fed waterfalls, meandering streams, charming footbridges and winding pathways, creating an enchanting private retreat unlike anything else. Among the property's most extraordinary treasures are 2 original Dawn redwood trees, reportedly grown from seeds originating in China and planted as part of an exceptionally limited introduction to Michigan 1950s. Additional botanical highlights include majestic bald cypress, magnolias, birch trees, and an extensive collection of distinctive plantings. The residence offers 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths and an amazing great room featuring walls of windows overlooking Watkins Lake, beautiful Bruce hardwood flooring and a natural wood-burning fireplace. The main level also features a remodeled kitchen with stainless steel appliances, shaker style cabinets and corian countertops, 2 bedrooms, an office, a dining room, a spacious remodeled full bath, and convenient first-floor laundry. The upper level provides exceptional flexibility with a private bedroom, deep walk in closet, full bath, sitting room w/ lake views, kitchen area with hookups for an electric stove and refrigerator--ideal for extended family, guests, or a private retreat. Thoughtful improvements include an encapsulated crawl space with a 25-year warranty with 3 sump pumps (2015), French drain (2017), completely rewired electrical (2023), roof (2010), windows and siding (2012), forced-air furnace (2016), central air (2018), and a new on-demand tankless water heater (2026). More than a waterfront residence, this is a living botanical treasure--an irreplaceable setting offering tranquility, natural wonder, and an extraordinary connection to Watkins Lake.
