July 26, 2024

This "spectacular and chic" home not far from Suttons Bay offers more than 8,000 square feet of new(ish) build luxury surrounded by 30 acres of cherry orchards and vineyards.

It's been on the market for a bit, but a recent development is that a new buyer can assume the current owner's mortgage at a 4.45 percent interest rate. 

According to the listing, its own 3 acre working vineyard produces 45,000 bottles of wine that provide $230,000 of income annually. 

The five bedroom, five bath home, which can sleep up to 20 people, has bay views in three directons, including sunrises & sunsets from parts of the house. The living room is "gracious and warm," with wood floors & vaulted ceiling, exposed beams & stone fireplace featuring a custom mantel. The kitchen/bar area features leathered granite & concrete counter tops, SubZero refrigerator with a glass door window and commercial gas stove.
