As you enter the grounds of this breathtaking estate, there is a circular stone drive that leads to the stone forecourt w/ two, 3-car garages and a driveway to the underground 16 car garage, all w/ snow melt systems. This stone and brick home has a slate roof w/ custom copper gutters & downspouts, Marvin windows & doors, high ceilings, custom designer lighting, smart house technology, geothermal heating and cooling w/ radiant heat floors on all 4 levels, and a back staircase w/ access to all levels. The outdoor amenities are beyond compare, including a pool with deck jets, diving board and under water speakers, a spa with a fountain and 2 fire bowls, an outdoor kitchen and bluestone terraces w/ 3 loggias, one with a TV and fireplace. The custom 3 1/2 inch thick white oak front door with sidelights and artistic wrought iron detail opens to the foyer with limestone floors and 8 custom, concealed wood paneled closets. The handsome library w/ walnut bookshelves, library ladder, intricate millwork, and fireplace has French doors that open to the back loggia with panoramic views of the lake and access to the northern 3 car garage with separate loggia. The east loggia connects to the living room and overlooks the pool, expansive grounds and Lake Michigan. The living room opens to the elegant dining room, which is adjacent to the breakfast room and exquisite Christopher Peacock kitchen and butler's pantry w/ white high gloss cabinetry w/ walnut interiors, and thick quartzite countertops. The massive island has Bahia granite countertops, refrigerator drawers and seating for 4. La Cornue, Miele and Sub-Zero appliances complete this gourmet kitchen which is open to the stunning family room. The exquisite staircase to the second floor is oval w/ custom wrought iron railings that blend utter sophistication with today's living.
