One family's heart and soul have lived in this 20-acre wooded retreat for 35 years-a single owner, three finished levels, and a lifetime of memories built into every corner. Open-concept living is joined by an airy loft, a walkout lower level with its own full kitchen, and a lineup of outbuildings built for serious Northern Michigan living. The main floor is wrapped in natural character-wood floors, walls, and ceilings throughout, exposed beams in the living room and kitchen, and a cathedral ceiling that carries into a vaulted sun room ceiling, adding volume and light. Oversized windows draw the surrounding wooded landscape in at every turn, and a kitchen bar area keeps the flow easy and social. Two freestanding wood stoves-one warming the dining and living room, another in the sun room-make the space a genuine four-season retreat. French doors lead from the living area into the sun room, and the covered front porch opens onto a side deck. The primary bedroom and full bath are tucked conveniently on the main level, while an airy loft bedroom opens above-an elevated retreat with its own distinctive sense of privacy and perspective. The finished walkout lower level functions as a fully self-contained living space: family room, full kitchen with pantry, full bath, and a non-conforming bedroom-working naturally as a guest suite, in-law quarters, or expanded bonus living level. Outbuildings include a 40x36 detached garage/outbuilding, a heated 24x36 garage/outbuilding, and a tool and gardening shed-storage and workshop space to match the acreage. High-speed True Stream Fiber keeps this secluded address connected. This is a property that exemplifies the true meaning of "bliss" -imagine relaxing in a rocker on the covered front porch, overlooking the tree-scaped front yard, or embracing the laid-back atmosphere of nearby Cross Village, the Bliss Polo Club, and the sought-after Sturgeon Bay Beach.
