Log Home adjoins Sleeping Bear Dunes

Log cabin at the end of a gravel driveway peeks between mature trees with a tall dune in the background. Drone shot is taken over the turquoise water of Little Glen Lake toward the shore with the Dune Climb as a Texas-shaped patch of sand from above and dense forest surrounding it, where the home is, and a sliver of Lake Michigan shows in the distance behind the dunes. This is a partial view of the carpeted living room with the French doors and windows above them, log-sided wall and kitchen and dining room in the distance. A fireplace is across the room from this scene, out of the frame. Log home interior photo of kitchen shows the cherry wood cabinetry, stainless gas oven with microwave above it and a cooking island with granite counter. You can see the pine log walls and pendulum lighting. This is a bright and cheery space.

Bordering the Sleeping Bear Dunes, this full log 3 BR, 2.5 BA home rests among mature trees on 1.7 acres adjoining National Park property south of the Dune Climb in Glen Arbor Township. The well-maintained residence was built in 2020, and amenities include central air, natural gas, water softener, cable TV and internet, and a whole-house Generac generator for peace of mind.

The inside is clean and bright, with log exterior walls and drywalled interior walls and ceilings. Floors are carpeted or covered in luxury plank vinyl. A vaulted ceiling in the Great Room includes windows above the French door to let more light stream in. Cozy up to the gas fireplace or step from the living room to the 10×20 outdoor deck with spectacular views of the dunes. A cook’s kitchen includes a 6-burner gas stove and double oven, granite counters, cherry wood cabinets, stainless appliances and an island with seating next to the dining area. A kitchen doorway  leads to the 15×18 screened porch for outdoor dining, reading and lounging. The main floor primary bedroom includes a huge walk-in closet with its own access to the laundry area, a sliding door to the balcony, and a full bathroom with dual sinks. A half bath is conveniently located off the entry.

The finished lower level shares the upper entryway and has its own  entrance via French doors. Set up as an apartment-type living space, the lower level includes a large family room, kitchen, bathroom with shower, and two bedrooms: one nonconforming, one with a door to the outside—perhaps for your home office or hobby room. Additionally, there is a 15×15 utility/storage/shop area.

Step outside for more property features. Store tools in the 16×12 garden storage shed. At the road are an RV hookup and a 16×12 cabin attractively finished inside for use as a guest cabin or art studio. A long driveway promises privacy, less road noise, and the dark skies you need to stargaze around the campfire. Walk from the backyard to National Park property and the dunes.
