1119 E South Shore

Set along the coveted South Shore of Crystal Lake, this exceptional waterfront home offers a setting that is increasingly difficult to find. With approximately 177 feet of private Crystal Lake frontage, 1.30 acres, and 3,400 finished square feet, the property combines privacy, scale, and timeless Northern Michigan character. The homesite broadens as it approaches the lake, creating an expansive waterfront presence and a beautiful sense of openness at the shoreline. Inside, dramatic vaulted ceilings and warm timber-frame architecture create an immediate sense of place. The main living room and primary bedroom each feature their own fireplace, adding warmth and character throughout the seasons. The thoughtful floor plan also includes four bedrooms, four baths, a main-floor primary suite, built-in cabinetry, wet bar, island kitchen, mud room, and den/study. Outdoor living is equally special, with a screened porch, deck, balcony, garden area, and an especially inviting stretch of sandy-bottom Crystal Lake frontage ideal for swimming. The clear, SANDY lake bottom in front of the home is a notable feature along this section of South Shore, where rockier lake bottoms are common. The home was completely painted approximately four years ago and also features central air, natural gas heat, an attached two-car garage, and a whole-house generator for added comfort and peace of mind. This is more than a lake house, it is a rare opportunity to own a substantial home on one of Crystal Lake’s most sought-after shores, with exceptional waterfront, timeless character, and the kind of setting that invites generations of memories.
