About this property

1 block to beach with Lake Views, Fire Pit & Room for 21. Spacious and Private

  • Welcome to Your Perfect Beach Retreat!
    Discover the ultimate getaway in this beautiful three-level home, ideally located just one block from the beach. Perfect for large families, friend groups, or multi-generational gatherings, this spacious retreat offers the ideal combination of comfort, privacy, and proximity to everything you love about lakeside living. Situated atop a serene dune, this home offers stunning glimpses of the lake from nearly every room, all while maintaining a tranquil and private atmosphere.

    Beachside Convenience
    One of the main highlights of this home is its unbeatable location. Just a short walk from the beach, you’ll have the freedom to enjoy the sand and water whenever you desire. We’ve thought of everything to make your beach experience as easy and enjoyable as possible — beach towels, chairs, and toys are all provided, so you can pack light and enjoy your time by the water.

    Generous Space for Your Group
    With room for up to 21 guests, there’s no shortage of space for everyone to spread out, relax, and make memories. This home boasts three levels of living space, each thoughtfully designed to maximize comfort and convenience. Whether you’re enjoying a meal together, having fun in the living areas, or unwinding after a long day, you'll have plenty of room to enjoy each other’s company or find a quiet corner to relax on your own.

    Top Floor:
    The top floor features three beautifully appointed bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom for ultimate privacy and convenience. The master suite offers a serene retreat, with large windows providing partial views of the lake. The other two bedrooms offer comfortable spaces for guests to enjoy, making this level perfect for families or adults who need a little extra space and privacy.

    Main Level:
    On the main level, you’ll find another spacious bedroom with an en-suite bathroom, perfect for those who prefer easy access without going up or down stairs within the home. The fully equipped kitchen is a chef’s dream, with high-end appliances, ample cooking space, and an island seating for 6 — making it a great spot for meal prep, casual conversation, or a quick snack. Adjacent to the kitchen is a large dining room that comfortably seats 12, ideal for family dinners or celebrating special occasions.

    Just off the kitchen, you'll find a half bath for added convenience, ensuring that there’s always easy access to facilities. The wrap-around porch offers an expansive outdoor living space, perfect for enjoying the fresh air. It includes comfortable seating, a firepit, and ample space for dining, making it the perfect spot for meals or relaxing with a drink after a day at the beach.

    Lower Level:
    The lower level of the home has two bedrooms: a bunk room perfect for kids or additional guests, and a King suite for those seeking a little extra luxury. The lower level also features a large bathroom with two showers and two sinks, easily accessible to both bedrooms, ensuring everyone has enough space and privacy.

    In addition, the basement boasts a kitchenette for snacks or preparing light meals, and a living room offering more space for relaxation, ideal for watching movies or enjoying quiet time. This level is perfect for guests who want a little more privacy or a place to gather separate from the main living areas.

    Exceptional Amenities
    Private Parking: One of the rare gems of this property is its ample parking. The home offers private parking in the back, suitable for 2-3 cars, and additional space at the front for 4-5 cars, depending on size. This is a huge bonus, especially for those who know how difficult it can be to find parking near the beach!

    Laundry Rooms: For your convenience, this home has two laundry rooms—one on the main level and another in the basement—making it easy to keep up with laundry during your stay.

    Game Closet: While there is no dedicated game room, we’ve made sure there’s plenty of entertainment with a game closet stocked with board games and activities for everyone to enjoy.

    Outdoor Living
    Whether you're soaking up the sun, watching the sunset, or enjoying the evening by the fire, the outdoor spaces at this home are just as inviting as the indoors. The wrap-around porch offers expansive seating and a perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktail while taking in the lake breezes. The fire pit is ideal for those cooler evenings when you want to gather around and share stories or roast marshmallows under the stars.

    The Privacy You Desire
    While the home offers an abundance of space and amazing features, it’s the location atop a dune that gives this property its unique charm. Enjoy the privacy and serenity of being slightly elevated, surrounded by lush greenery, yet still only a short stroll away from the beach and all the activities you love. It’s the perfect place to retreat with loved ones and create memories that will last a lifetime.

    Additional Features:
    Proximity to Beach: Just a short walk away — enjoy the beach without the hassle of driving or parking!

    Perfect for Large Groups: This home comfortably accommodates up to 19 guests, making it ideal for family reunions, milestone celebrations, or a getaway with friends.

    Private and Quiet: While spacious, this property offers plenty of privacy, with its location on a quiet dune and far from busy streets.

    Convenient Layout: With three levels, the home offers generous space for your group, with bedrooms, bathrooms, and living areas spread across the main floor, upper level, and lower level. This ensures that guests have ample room to socialize and unwind.

    Walkability: Ditch the car during your stay. This prime location offers dining options and attractions such as Washington Park, Washington Park Zoo, and an outdoor concert venue all within walking distance from the home. For those not driving, there is a train station from Chicago to MC just a 5 min uber ride from the station to the house.

    Stairs: The home features stairs at both the front and rear entrances. While this adds to the charm and privacy of the property, please note that guests should be comfortable with stairs to fully enjoy all levels of the home. Trust me they are worth it for the privacy and views.

    Perfect for Multi-Generational Gatherings
    Whether you're celebrating a special occasion or just enjoying some time away from the everyday, this home is ideal for large family gatherings, reunions, or a fun group of friends. With plenty of indoor and outdoor space, each guest will have their own corner to relax while still having lots of common areas to gather together.

    Book Your Stay
    We offer Friday-to-Friday rentals from Memorial Day to Labor Day, giving you the full week to enjoy everything this incredible area has to offer. Don’t miss out on the opportunity to stay in this amazing home – it’s the perfect spot for making lifelong memories with those you love.
