    Hello there, our home is available to rent from October 2025 until May/June of 2026. Lease terms are negotiable. We are open to a 3 month lease, or 6 or 8 month agreement if preferred. Even a one month rental could work if needed. This is a beautiful home and we want to find quality families or renters who will take good care of it. Description below thank you! Your private oasis by the lake; Unbeatable location, stunning views, and spacious accommodations. Live in a stunning, sunshine filled new beach house just steps from the water's edge with a spacious layout that can comfortably accommodate 12 guests. This newly built home offers breathtaking views of the lake and dunes from the 2nd and 3rd floor balconies and living area. The sound of the waves will lull you to sleep each night - as the location is unbeatable; with Lake Michigan, Washington Park, the Zoo, the harbor, concerts, and three restaurants, all within walking distance. The approach to the house is private, accessed by a gravel driveway with parking for up to three cars. On the ground level there are two bedrooms and an open family room with couches, games and a TV. One bedroom has a queen bed and another has a set of twin beds, as well as a set of bunk beds, as pictured. The two standalone twin beds can be converted in to a King bed upon request. On this floor there is also a full bath with bathtub and laundry room with top loading washer & dryer. The second level is one continuous open space with breathtaking lake views, sunshine throughout the day, beautiful exposed wooden beams and a balcony facing the lake - a perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or evening glass of wine. The large, fully equipped modern kitchen is perfect for cooking and entertaining, with an elegant island and dining space. There is a comfortable sitting area with a TV and reading area and a bath with a walk-in shower. The third level features 2 rooms and a den. The gorgeous master bedroom has a king size bed and a private balcony overlooking the dunes and lake - with easy chairs. The Queen size bedroom has a reading nook, chair, and private closet. All rooms share a large designer bath with a classy shower (with seat) and double vanity. Additionally, there's a den with a pull-out couch (bed) and an office desk - perfect for morning emails before you hit the beach. Outdoor amenities include a second-level glass balcony with seating and lake views, perfect for watching sunsets over the Chicago skyline. On the ground level, guests can relax on the patio and enjoy the beachy vibe, while the third-floor balcony offers a more private space to unwind. The house also features a gas grill for BBQs and a wagon to transport beach gear to and from the water (a 5 minute stroll down a sandy path). This home is located in Sheridan Beach, Michigan City, Indiana, near the intersection of Nevada Ave, Colfax Ave and the lake; a prime vacation spot along the lakefront. The driveway provides parking for up to three vehicles. Additional street parking is available in the neighborhood. Small sized dogs, 30 lbs or less, are permitted. There is no home just like this in Michigan City. Quite private, the prime attraction is the seclusion, short sandy walk to the beach, the beautiful views of the dunes and lake, and the spectacular second floor open area. Located 5 minutes drive to downtown Michigan City, 10 minutes to New Buffalo, and one hour to Chicago. Renter is responsible for all utilities; water, gas, electricity, wifi etc. Hello there! We are flexible with our terms for renting this season. The home is available from October 2025 until May/June of 2026. So, anywhere inside of that window, we are open to discussing rental. Perhaps a 8 month, or 6 month, or 3 month agreement can work if necessary. Lease terms are negotiable. Renter is responsible for all utilities; water, gas, electricity, wifi etc. First and last months rent, deposit, due at signing. No smoking inside, small dogs allowed. Thank You!
