Property Description

Welcome to “Merry Brook,” a truly special Torch Lake estate where privacy, natural beauty and timeless craftsmanship come together on 184’ of frontage and 3.3 acres. A winding wooded drive sets the tone as you cross two charming bridges over the babbling brook that meanders through the property. Lovingly landscaped grounds, flagstone pathways and peaceful sitting areas invite you to relax. Over 3,652 sq. ft. of warm and thoughtfully designed living space, this home is filled with character throughout. The inviting foyer features a custom front door, while double glass doors open to a den/study. The great room is centered around a stunning two-sided stone fireplace, where each massive stone was carefully chosen, vaulted ceilings, custom built-ins and expansive windows framing your own piece of paradise. The dining area enjoys the warmth of the fireplace and lovely water views. The delightful kitchen was designed to embrace the waterfront setting and features granite countertops, dual wall ovens, island seating, large walk-in pantry and a convenient grocery pass-through from the garage. The four-season sunroom may become your favorite room, perfect for morning coffee while watching the birds gather at their feeders. The main floor primary suite offers gorgeous views, two walk-in closets and a luxurious bath with jetted tub, dual sinks and tiled shower. An adjoining artist/craft room opens to a private deck with porch swing overlooking the brook. With 4 bedrooms and 3 baths, there is room for family and friends. Outdoor living is equally special with a large waterfront deck, power awning, outdoor shower and built-in firepit for sunset evenings by the lake. Cedar shake styling, stone accents, 3-car garage and three deer sculptures add to the charm. “Merry Brook” is a peaceful retreat, gathering place and rare opportunity to enjoy private, secluded frontage and the best of Torch Lake living.
