THE SPACE
Upon entering the main floor of Sunset Manor, you and your guests will be swept up by the rich ambiance, plush furnishings, and elegant décor – not to mention the vaulted ceilings, great natural light, and fantastic lake views. The living room invites you to lay back in luxury and watch a movie or show in front of the cozy fireplace. Or if gathering around a kitchen island or a breakfast nook is your preferred jam, we’ve got you covered! The super-spacious Chef’s Kitchen – with its premier appliances and all you need to cook up delicious vacation meals or snacks – includes a chic center island and a charming breakfast nook, either one being perfect for morning coffee dialogues or thoughts about what’s next on your vacation agenda. Both sport amazing views of windswept Lake Michigan. By the way, that stone-top center island also comes with an extra-wide built-in gas stove. Ooh-la-la! When you want to share a formal meal together, the sumptuous dining room beckons with a custom hardwood dining table that seats 10. There’s also a ‘most excellent’ 3-season sunroom on the main floor, where you can read a favorite book, drink a favorite beverage, or simply spend time gazing out at the vast expanse of the lake to your heart’s content.
On the downstairs floor, you and your guests will find R-and-R comes easy, with a posh Recreation Room highlighted by a top-of-the-line ping-pong table, Foosball table, flat-screen TV, a gorgeous bar with a pro wine cooler, and a super-sleek fireplace – plus easy access to the way-nice patio, hot tub, and more superb Lake Michigan views! And if you’re more inclined to sit and sip a glass of wine, there’s a spacious, lushly furnished family room adjacent to the Rec Room, providing plenty of seating options for chilling out with fellow guests. Another downstairs alternative is spending some peaceful, easy-feeling time in the laid-back sitting room, which is outfitted with more comfy-cozy furniture and plenty of room to relax.
Each of Sunset Manor’s 7 bedrooms is lavishly appointed – even the bunk beds are custom-built – and features top-quality bedding and linens to ensure a sound sleep and sweet dreams! You’ll also find plenty of clothing storage space, wonderful natural lighting, breathtaking views, plus flat-screen TVs, fireplaces, and stylish, hand-selected decor and accessories.
