About this home

Welcome to 8 Manitou Road, a charming mid-century modern home nestled by the shores of the Saugatuck River. Natural light pours in from all angles, with wide-open living spaces spanning a single floor of this fun and functional house. A sophisticated double-sided fireplace fuses the front to back space, that flows seamlessly outdoors to the bluestone patio with custom fire pit. The kitchen and great room create the true heart of the home-a bright, open cooking space with top appliances and breakfast bar, a dining area suitable for both everyday and hosting dinner parties, an airy family lounge surrounding the fireplace and TV, with easy access to the gorgeous patio for outdoor grilling and gathering! There are two bedroom wings, one that holds the primary suite with a walk-in closet and full bath, as well as another spacious bedroom with a full hall bath. The second bedroom wing encompasses two equally sized bedrooms, a full bath and a laundry room. The front-facing home office tops off the convenience list with views of the sprawling front yard. The whimsical property is about one acre with privacy plantings and plenty of space for play. Located on a coveted private road, this one-of-a-kind property is close to Longshore Club Park, Compo Beach, the Saugatuck Train station and all river activities!
