About 810 E Lake Street
Among the classic homes of the previous century in the center of Downtown Petoskey's coveted Upper East Side is this newer construction luxury home spanning two city lots featuring a family-friendly floor plan that you just can't find within the city limits. So, what sets 810 East Lake Street apart from its contemporaries? To start, it's 10 years old, not 110 years old, so the mechanicals, windows, insulation, and maintenance-free exterior are not an ongoing "older home" expenditure. Inside, the difference is large bedrooms, with walk-in closets, vaulted ceilings, a gourmet kitchen and storage solutions that an older Victorian just can't provide. There's not one, but two 2-car heated garages, one with an In-law suite/office above, which is difficult to achieve with the smaller lot sizes and strict zoning laws that Petoskey is known for. But the real difference for the current owners is the completely private backyard, replete with smart landscaping choices, irrigation, soothing lighting, custom hardscape, kids' playhouse, hot tub, gas fire pit, and a covered area off the home's sunroom that allows outdoor enjoyment, even on rainy days. This is a one of a kind family or retirement home has been meticulously crafted and maintained for a year-round or resort family living, but you don't have to get in the car to go anywhere; you can walk to the Winter Sports Park, or the 172 acres of hiking trails behind The Bay View Association, the waterfront, all schools, or Petoskey's famed Gaslight District. So, from the free-flowing main floor with multiple spaces for entertaining, to the lower-level gym, to the sauna, to the large primary suite with luxurious appointments and the kind of closet that you deserve, this home, in this neighborhood, can't be found in the city and is being offered by appointment for discerning purchasers who know a quality custom home when they see it. 810 East Lake Street is an in-town dream come true and just in time for summer.
