Sundown Shores – 38525 Island Woods Road

“Sundown Shores” – 38525 Island Woods Road

A beautifully remodeled 3-bedroom-2-full baths home on the NW corner of the island (right at Cross’s Landing”) with 95.69 ft. of L .MI frontage. It also has a large inland lot across the road from the LF lot. It has wonderful sunset views year round. This 2 story house has a spectacular view of High Island, Trout Island and L. MI to the West. It is on a lot with nice tree cover, especially large spruces that frame the view out front. It has 1 bedroom on the main level with a full bath; a large living room/dining room area combined, with new picture windows and sliding doors on the lakeside. A large outside deck is just off this living/dining area. The upstairs has 2 bedrooms with a balcony-deck on the lakeside bedroom. A second full bath was created between the 2 upstairs bedrooms in 2022. It also has a sloped ceiling “mezzanine” area at the top of the stairs that is a good sitting room-reading room with a view of the lake. This area is also for extra sleeping space that is semi-private. In 2023, a new 8’x10’ storage shed was built between the house and road. There is a high crawlspace underneath the house for storage of a lot of outside equipment and deck furniture. In 2022 work performed by Greenwald Construction included a completely new roof with “hurricane shingles”, a second full bath upstairs, remodeling of the lower level main bath, all new windows on the west side of the house, and the installation of gutters and gutter guards all around. The same year the whole exterior siding, trim, and fascia was redone. That fall many other improvements, both inside and outside the home were done, including a new front entry door with storm door, replacement of all outdoor lighting fixtures, and professional removal of multiple trees that could become a problem. In 2023 the original hot water heater was replaced, all baseboard heaters were updated, all electrical outlets and thermostats were replaced, inside painting was done, a new ceiling fan installed, and a lot of the furniture replaced. In 2024 Greenwald was hired to completely redo the kitchen, including new flooring in the kitchen and dining area. The bedrooms were all repainted and the driveway was improved. Through the end of 2024 well over $200,000. of capital improvements were made to the house and about $15,000 was spent on new furniture. This 1248 sqft home is a totally redone lake front home; essentially a brand new home. With the raw land value at a little over $110,000 and the replacement cost of the structures over $570,000, it would cost someone about $700,000 to reproduce this property. It is therefore fairly priced to sell “and is FIRM” at             $595,000.
