Description

***OFFER DEADLINE: ALL OFFERS DUE BY 8PM MONDAY 12/30***Experience the perfect "Up North" escape right in the heart of Brighton with this stunning home offering access to all-sports Appleton Lake. With over 2,500 square feet of custom living space, this home underwent a complete transformation in 2020, remodeled down to the studs with a redesigned floor plan that showcases breathtaking lake views from nearly every room. The gorgeous, open-concept granite kitchen features a wall of windows overlooking the lake, creating a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living. The main level boasts a marble, floor-to-ceiling gas fireplace and doorwalls that open to an expansive deck, perfect for hosting and entertaining. The luxurious Primary bedroom offers serene lake views, private deck access, and a spacious walk-in closet with organizers. Need more space? The flexible basement-level room can easily be converted into a 4th bedroom or en suite, offering the same comforts and lake views as the main level. For added convenience, enjoy laundry facilities on both levels—full-size units in the basement and space for a stackable unit in the main-floor hall bath. Movie nights are made easy with the basement's projector system and hidden screen, complete with a sleek LED wall. Recent updates include a tankless water heater, updated windows, and a charming covered front porch. Situated on a large lot just shy of a half acre, there’s plenty of space to create your dream yard. Lakefront access is through community property, allowing you to use it like your own, including docking privileges. There is no formal HOA, just minimal private road fees paid yearly. To help you fully embrace lake life, the seller is including a paddleboard and kayak for your enjoyment when the weather allows. Whether you’re looking for a year-round home or the ultimate summer retreat, this property offers everything you need to relax, entertain, and make lasting memories. Schedule your showing today!

    "Brighton is such an amazing city to live in. There’s so many sides that people never see. You can venture downtown and have coffee, drinks, great food. You can go for a walk, cross bridges and get ice cream. You have city life, and solitary life all in one city. And the people of Brighton, absolutely love the attitude and vibes. "
