Description

Alanson - MLS# 480148
Set along the shores of Burt Lake, 2417 Resort Road presents a rare opportunity to own one of the lake’s largest and most distinctive private residences. Designed as a true luxury family compound, this exceptional waterfront estate combines grand scale, timeless craftsmanship, and the warmth of a home created for generations to gather. The residence offers approximately 13,000 square feet of thoughtfully planned living space across three levels, with an impressive variety of areas for both everyday comfort and large-scale entertaining. Expansive family and game rooms, formal and informal dining spaces, generous bedroom accommodations, and abundant storage allow the home to function beautifully for extended family, guests, and multi-generational living. Throughout, detailed millwork, substantial stonework, custom architectural elements, and quality materials reflect a level of craftsmanship rarely found in today’s market. A private, tree-lined approach introduces the estate and reveals a home that feels both impressive and inviting. Multiple wings, varied rooflines, stone accents, covered porches, and gracious outdoor spaces give the property a timeless Northern Michigan character. The scale is substantial, yet the design remains comfortable and livable, with spaces that encourage both connection and privacy. The setting is equally remarkable. Mature trees, extensive landscaping, stone terraces, winding paths, and multiple outdoor gathering areas create a park-like setting between the home and the water. The shoreline is designed for the best of Northern Michigan lake life, with a substantial dock system, multiple covered boat slips, and generous space for swimming, boating, relaxing, and entertaining at the water’s edge. Inside and out, the property was created to bring people together. Large gathering rooms flow easily to terraces and lawns, while more intimate spaces provide quiet places to retreat.
