This enchanting 6-bedroom home overlooks Round Lake, the sparkling blue jewel that links Lake Michigan to Lake Charlevoix and Downtown Charlevoix's celebrated port of call. Step inside this storybook home and discover a seamless flow of thoughtfully designed living areas, nooks and bedrooms that frame gorgeous lake views. Designed by Virginia Young Olsen, daughter of Charlevoix's famous architect, Earl Young, she transformed cedar shake, stucco and boulder into this remarkable work of architecture. Exposed timber beams, stone fireplaces and lattice windows set the scene with timeless worldly charm. From the guest suite to the custom designed kitchen, every detail bestows a luxurious lifestyle, while the oversized two-car garage offers additional space for storage. Located at the end of a private lane, this home is set on a spacious lakeside lot with tiered gardens, offering 153 feet of private frontage and a permanent dock, prime for setting out on your next Great Lakes boating adventure. Walk or bike to Downtown Charlevoix to enjoy waterside dining, cafes, shopping, sandy Lake Michigan beaches, and the vibrant farmers market. Teach the young ones how to ski at Mt. McSauba and enjoy a front row seat to the Venetian Festival fireworks every summer. Take advantage of being minutes from the Charlevoix airport, and plan fun day trips to Traverse City, Petoskey and Harbor Springs. Imagine the memories you'll make at Thistle Downs Drive. Your family and friends will cherish every visit to this Northern Michigan gem. It's just the beginning of a wonderful new chapter! Don't miss this rare opportunity to own a home on Round Lake.
