Property Description
Experience the best of U.P. living in this expansive 4,236-square-foot home, perfectly situated on 23 acres of lush hardwoods with 880 feet of tranquil Engman Lake frontage. Located just under 30 minutes south of Marquette and 10 minutes east of Marquette Sawyer Regional Airport, this property offers secluded serenity with easy access to modern amenities. Outdoor lovers will appreciate the beautifully landscaped yard, complete with perennials, flowering trees, and a gazebo featuring electricity and a built-in fire pit. The grounds also offer a thriving vegetable garden, a peach tree, multiple apple and pear trees, raspberry patches, and private trails meandering throughout the property. Practical features include an oversized 3.5-car garage with 220v service, a storage area, and a potting shed. You'll also find two additional storage sheds and a classic outdoor wood-burning sauna equipped with a shower. Upon entering the home, you are greeted by a convenient coat area and stairs leading to the lower level. The entire main floor is stunningly appointed with ¾-inch paneling of Red Western Cedar, Michigan White Cedar, and Cherry. The inviting main living room features a wet bar, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a private balcony overlooking the lake. The spacious primary bedroom offers a luxurious en suite with separate vanities, dual closets, a jetted tub, and a walk-in shower. Entertaining is a breeze in the eat-in kitchen and dining room, which boast rich oak floors and hickory cabinets. Rounding out the main level is a sunroom with beautiful lake views, a 3/4 bathroom, a laundry room, and a guest bedroom currently utilized as an office. A bright breakfast nook sits just off the kitchen, providing a secondary entry and additional stair access to the lower level. Downstairs, the lower level expands your living space with two more guest bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a spacious family room anchored by a wood-burning stove. Entertain guests at the lower-level bar, featuring charming built-in booths salvaged from Marquette’s historic Midway Supper Club. For the culinary enthusiast or gardener, a second kitchen/canning room provides an additional stove, sink, and ample prep space. Step out through the lower-level second sunroom and follow the stone steps directly down to your private dock. Make your Upper Peninsula lake life dreams a reality with this meticulously maintained waterfront estate!
