Description

OPEN HOUSE Wednesday 12/18 2-4PM - Truly a ONE-OF-A-KIND Estate offers you everything....SECLUSION, OPPORTUNITY, LOCATION like none other. The estate is not just a home, but a lifestyle destination. Your introduction & entrance to the property is accomplished by driving through your shared 239+/- Acre parcel (Pickerel Woods LLC) where you and a limited few enjoy hiking, hunting, trail riding etc. This serene drive in brings you to the gate of what you thought you could only dream about.... a once in a lifetime opportunity. The property boasts your own private, individually owned, RECENTLY SURVEYED, 39.1 acre parcel with creek meandering through, West facing 600' of private waterfront w/sandy beach/swim area on All Sports Pickerel Lake. Now let me introduce you to this Magnificent Retreat.

Supplements: Home, furnishings and design were completed by award winning metro Detroit based Interior Designer Carrie Long.... and the result was stunning perfection. This luxury home offers over 5,000+ square feet with 7 bedrooms and 7 baths, the 2-story stone fireplace showcases the great room and cat walk loft area. Adjacent is the gourmet kitchen with handmade backsplash, granite countertops and all the amenities and conveniences you desire including high end appliances or if you desire an outside dining experience enjoy the Hasty-Bake charcoal BBQ Grill and vent hood on screened deck just off the kitchen, with pass through window. The main floor primary suite is a real "sanctuary" with private screened deck space off the sitting room/office area, custom furnishings, large walk-in closet and master bath with Jason double Jacuzzi, Grey slate flooring and shower walls which are viewed through European glass door.... did I mention the bedroom carpets are 100% natural wool++++ Let me simply say every room is exquisitely furnished and designed (please read detailed features and improvement list of this home). Outside anything is possible....2 of the 7 outbuildings (4 with power) are filled with everything you need to enjoy every season with family or relax after an intense meeting with business colleagues... whatever it is there is something for everyone....whether it's going for a swim, sunbathing, fishing, every yard game imaginable, play horseshoes, paddle board, canoe, kayak, grab one of the ATV's and go for an adventure, relax and enjoy the seating around the large firepit (all the wood you need in one the outbuildings), take a nap in the bunkhouse... you can do any or all of these things as everything you need to do so is provided. Practical matters are whole house back up generator, treatment system for all water throughout home for softening and demineralization and additional filtration system for drinking water in 3 faucets in kitchen and wet bar, Spectrum Cable and high-speed internet keeps you connected, two furnaces, two A/C units, two tankless hot water heaters.... see extensive additional features and improvements lists in attached documents, for ALL OF THE OVER THE TOP QUALITY IMPROVEMENTS AND UPGRADES regarding this property. I will sum it all up with something the Seller said to me.... "We designed this property to be maintenance free so all we needed to do upon arrival was enjoy the property and our family and friends"..... MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Seller would like to leave the property exactly as you see it.... yes from the Kubota Tractor to the Arhuas custom sectional sofa and cabinets....Setup your private showing. Two aerial maps available; one is the private 40+/-Acre parcel and also the shared 239+/- Acre parcel.
