Property Description
A NORTHERN MICHIGAN LEGACY PROPERTY! An extraordinary 224+/- acre private estate offering over 1/2 MILE—3,000+ feet—of frontage on spectacular Emerald Lake, a 100+ acre private all-sports quarry lake shared by just nine lake parcel owners. Behind the gated entrance and long paved private drive awaits a remarkable combination of waterfront, mature woods, wildlife, recreation and an approximately 4,500 sq ft custom residence. The lakefront is simply incredible, highlighted by an approximately $200,000 professionally constructed stone seawall, custom lagoon and sandy swimming beach. Swim, boat, water ski, paddleboard, fish or simply take in the views from your own private shoreline. Add miles of groomed trails, guest quarters, a 40x60 pole barn and an amazing wildlife habitat and you have a property that is nearly impossible to duplicate. The custom-designed residence was created to embrace its incredible surroundings. A dramatic three-story Great Room showcases soaring windows, exposed beams and beautiful views, while open gathering and dining spaces make this home equally suited for quiet weekends or entertaining family and friends. The gourmet kitchen features custom Pioneer cabinetry, stainless steel appliances and a service/bar area, complemented by hardwood plank flooring throughout the main level. The primary suite is a destination of its own, featuring front and rear balconies, a luxurious private bath and a circular staircase leading to an amazing third-story turret retreat offering 360-degree views. Two additional bedrooms are located on the main level, including one with its own loft, along with a large full bath and convenient main-floor laundry. Additional features include central vacuum, newer heat pump and whole-house generator. Outside is where this estate becomes something truly special. Emerald Lake offers over 100 acres of private all-sports water with remarkably limited ownership. More than 3,000 feet of private frontage surrounds the property, enhanced by a professionally engineered seawall constructed with massive one-ton blocks extending approximately four feet below the waterline. A custom lagoon, sandy swimming beach and floating dock create your own private waterfront playground. The approximately 224 acres are a spectacular blend of mature hardwoods and pines, meadows, ponds, green fields and wildlife habitat. Approximately 80 acres have been maintained as an undisturbed wildlife sanctuary. The property includes hardwoods, pines, meadows, ponds, eight green fields, food plots, browse areas, wild fruit trees and pollinator landscaping. Miles of maintained and groomed trails wind throughout the acreage, ideal for walking, side-by-side riding, exploring or accessing the property's hunting and recreational areas. Wildlife is abundant, including trophy whitetail deer, waterfowl and an incredible variety of native wildlife, while loons and swans add to the experience along the water. Two Banks hunting blinds plus two additional custom blinds are strategically positioned throughout the property. And there is plenty of room for guests and toys. A private guest apartment above the oversized garage features warm natural pine finishes and a bathroom. The approximately 40x60 pole barn provides outstanding storage for RVs, boats, side-by-sides, equipment and everything needed to enjoy and maintain the estate. Modern split-log siding ties the residence and outbuildings together beautifully. Outdoor living spaces are equally impressive, including an enclosed patio, hand-selected natural-stone patio, distinctive deck with an inlaid "North Star," and a large stone fire-pit area—the perfect setting for evenings overlooking this remarkable Northern Michigan landscape. This isn't simply a home on acreage. It is a private Northern Michigan retreat offering waterfront, recreation, hunting, wildlife, woods and room to gather generations of family and friends—all in one extraordinary property. Whether envisioned as a year-round residence, family compound, recreational retreat or legacy estate, opportunities with this combination of acreage and private all-sports waterfront are exceedingly rare.
