Listing Details

Set along 200’ of premium sandy-bottom shoreline on the coveted west side of Burt Lake, “Lakeside Retreat” is a rare 2.4-acre property offering privacy, beautiful water views, and an authentic Northern Michigan lifestyle. Ideally positioned on Colonial Point, the property feels wonderfully removed from the pace of everyday life while remaining close to Harbor Springs, Petoskey, dining, shopping, ski resorts, and the area’s year-round amenities. Thoughtfully designed by renowned Harbor Springs architect William Fuller, the 3,950 Sq.Ft. home is perfectly positioned on a gentle rise to capture the lake views and natural cross breezes. With 4 bedrooms, the home includes a private lower-level primary suite and two additional guest suites. Lake views unfold from nearly every room, while the dramatic great room anchors the home with its soaring 28’ ceiling and impressive fireplace—a natural gathering place after a day on the water. The exceptional sandy-bottom shoreline is ideal for swimming, boating, and enjoying the calm waters of Colonial Point, where water skiers and wave runners are often seen throughout the summer. With no stairway required to reach the water, lake access is wonderfully effortless. A dock and hoist are included, making it easy to enjoy all that Burt Lake has to offer. Beyond the shoreline, the expansive acreage provides exceptional privacy and room to enjoy the outdoors. Indian Pointe Memorial Forest borders the rear of the property, offering access to 484 acres of old-growth forest and miles of unrestricted natural trails. After decades of summers filled with family, friends, dogs, boating, and countless memories, the property is ready for its next chapter. A place to step away from the merry-go-round of life, settle into a comfortable chair, and watch the lake change colors throughout the day, this special retreat offers the opportunity to create a lake house uniquely your own for generations to come. Furniture and boat are negotiable.
