About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

100 steps to Lake Michigan beach, private paved courtyard, gas fire pit.

**Notre Dame game weekends still available-45 mins to South Bend**
*9 bedrooms total, 6 full baths*

Why compromise for your VIP gatherings? Our returning guests enjoy the easy beach access, minimal steps to two main floor suites for two sets of grandparents, and a private patio able to hold your outdoor meals in relaxed comfort. Enjoy your Lake Michigan beach walks with a beverage in hand, barbecues on the oversized Weber grill, and gatherings on the private patio with gas fire pit--all with the perfect blend of convenience and elevated comfort for everyone.

As one of the original homes in Sheridan Beach, this stately property has just undergone a complete renovation and upgrade. Unlike any other property in the area, you'll enjoy the perfect blend of a convenient walk to the water's edge, plentiful modern bathrooms and privacy for your extended family, along with a beautiful 800sf private "terrazza" with natural gas firepit and grill. With designer-grade finishes, and tasteful, travel-themed artwork throughout, you will enjoy an elevated and relaxing stay in this comfortable home designed with extended family gatherings in mind. Only 60 minutes from Chicago by car, or 90 minutes from Midway Airport. The new kitchen features a 36” Bertazzoni gas range, quartz countertops, plentiful lighting, and is well-equipped with all the serving ware and tools needed to prepare great meals for your whole crew.
