Modern, custom, riverfront home on the Ford River near Escanaba. This one owner home was built in 2005 and looks like it was just finished yesterday. It starts with a convenient, yet peaceful setting on the Ford River near its mouth in Lake Michigan just a 10 minute drive from downtown Escanaba. This location has two nice restaurants and a boat launch within walking distance. The lot has frontage on the main river with the house being set back on a more private channel that encircles an island within the river. This provides both access to a use of the river without the exposure to traffic or neighbors. While the lot is under 2 acres, the lot design and landscaping provide a private feel. There is very little yard to maintain and stunning landscaping all around the home and entry drive. The river provides not only a peaceful setting, but attracts all kind of wildlife that can be enjoyed. The home is loaded with custom features and touches from top to bottom. A massive engineered beam carries the load for a 26 foot ceiling over the main portion of the home. Freestanding interior walls divide the kitchen and living space providing an open feel and great lighting. Every detail from trim and fixtures to poured in-floor heat and ICF foundation is well planned and well executed. The main space is not only highlighted by the dramatic ceiling, but also a glass wall which divides the living room from a sitting area bump out which is surrounded by windows overlooking the river. A master wing includes a huge bedroom with sitting area that access the back deck, a hallway connecting two separate walk-in closets, and a large master bath with jet tub, walk-in tile shower and double sink vanity. The basement is mostly finished with a large main rec room, two large bedrooms, and a bathroom complete with sauna. There are two attached garage with one being heated and air conditioned. A main floor laundry area with large linen closet at one garage entrance, with a beautiful entry that has closets and built in bench and storage at the other along with a half bath. As I'm running out of space here, I'll end with urging anyone with an interest to view the virtual tour and pictures to reference all the great details of this property, but also to contact us as there is much more here than we can elaborate on.
