This stunning contemporary in Beverly Shores is nestled in a dune and perfectly sited on over half an acre where mature pines and hardwoods afford privacy, and the surrounding Indiana Dunes National Park envelopes you in its magic and wonder. Designed by architect, Fred Bamesberger, the home's cedar clad exterior and copper trim blend seamlessly into the landscape, while the luxurious interior feels relaxing and rejuvenating. With 3 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and nearly 3,000 square feet of living space, the home was built with sophisticated design elements including a wood burning fireplace with a Vermont slate hearth and mantel, rift-sawn white oak floors coated in a rich dark stain and Lutron lighting that amplifies warmth and tranquility. Large windows bathe the home in natural light and built-ins throughout keep spaces calm and collected. The living and dining areas are interconnected for relaxation or entertaining and a chef's kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances and custom cabinetry, is ideal for preparing casual or gourmet meals. The primary suite has a spa-inspired en suite, a walk-in closet and overlooks the landscaped yard. A 2nd bedroom, currently used as a den, offers versatility for guests. The lower level has an in-home theatre with surround sound, an entertainment kitchen, a 3rd bedroom, full bath and an exercise-laundry room. Enjoy warm weather days and evenings on the outdoor patio, the covered porch or the cedar enclosed screened porch with a good read, interesting conversation or simply unwind listening to the peaceful sounds of nature. Amenities include zoned temperature control, whole home audio with in-ceiling speakers, professional landscaping with lighting, a security system and a generator. A short stroll, bike or golf cart ride to Lake Michigan, the South Shore train station, trails and the Great Marsh for bird watching. This home is the ultimate haven for those seeking respite while still being close to the vibrant culture of Chicago.
