Property Description
Very rare opportunity to own 2 charming adjacent Lake Michigan cottages, carefully situated on the dune, affording panoramic water views and a large beach. The combined sites create enormous privacy on 1.92 acres with over 260' of water frontage. Close-in location gives you nearly back yard access to White Lake Golf Club and White Lake Yacht Club. Enjoy the best of both worlds with quiet Lake Michigan living and immediate access to all the conveniences of the Whitehall and Montague communities. The location of the cottages creates an idyllic setting for large gatherings. The combined site is at the very end of a private drive. Homes are deeded separately but better together as they share new custom stairs to the generous beach at the bottom of the dune, parking at the end of the private drive, multiple pathways and walks plus a bluff side deck and firepit. Both cottages were relocated to a safe dune location in the mid 1980's and set on new foundations. The 1900-built cottage has 2,328 square feet with 6 bedrooms, 3 baths, and a huge screened-in porch, perfect for summer days. The 1965-built cottage has 1,939 square feet with 3 bedrooms, 2 baths plus a bright sunroom, great for meals, games, and entertaining. Each feature huge open living and gathering spaces, fully appointed kitchens, and modern conveniences all while preserving charm. Both have been carefully maintained as seasonal cottages and updated as needed over the years. Fruitland Township requires rentals be a minimum of 30 days. drive, multiple pathways and walks plus a bluff side deck and firepit.
