Space
THE SPACE:
The home is modern and exquisitely decorated throughout! The pinnacle of the interior of the home is the incredible primary bedroom on the third floor with its own private balcony (with a gorgeous view of Crystal Lake), gas fireplace, desk, television, and private ensuite full bathroom. The layout of the home is great for families, extended families, or groups with children due to the 2 large bunk bedrooms on the lower level (with presumably one of the bunk bedrooms being for boys and one being for girls).
The home has both a forced-air furnace for heat as well as central air conditioning, so it is very comfortable any time of the year. Note that the property has some wonderful extra amenities including two gas fireplaces (one in the living room and one in the primary bedroom) as well as two washers and two dryers.

Neighborhood
NEIGHBORHOOD:
The house is along the gorgeous south shore of Crystal Lake, which consists of many luxurious lakefront homes (including this one). The neighborhood is primarily made up of vacation homes of professional families. The home is very close to the famous (but quite remote) Railroad Point Nature Area on Crystal Lake, which has a beautiful nature trail going through it. The home is on Sunkissed Drive (hence the name), which is rather secluded and has very little traffic. The home sits on a portion of Crystal Lake that has a spectacular natural sandbar, so the water is quite clear, shallow, and refreshing for a considerable ways out into the lake.
Outside of the immediate neighborhood, the home is just a few miles from downtown Frankfort, which has a charming collection of shops, restaurants, cafes, a microbrewery (Stormcloud), and a vintage theater (The Garden Theater). Frankfort also has a fantastic public beach on Lake Michigan and a popular historic lighthouse. Downtown Beulah on Crystal Lake, with its own collection of charming shops, cafes, and restaurants, is only about a 6-minute drive from the home. The Sunkissed Beach House is also less than a 30-minute drive from both the start of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore (to the north) as well as Crystal Mountain Resort (to the southeast).
Traverse City is also only about a 1-hour drive to the east from The Sunkissed Beach House. Traverse City is the business, arts, recreation, entertainment, dining, and shopping hub of all of Northern Michigan and it provides a vast variety of "bigger city" things to see and do.
