You will fall in love with this quintessential beach house situated on 110' of private shoreline on Sand Bay, just 7 miles from downtown Sturgeon Bay, in the "Cape Cod of the Midwest," Door County, Wisconsin. This waterfront beach house has some of the most picturesque Eastern-facing views of the sunrise in the area. With a walk-out, sand bottom bay, you and your group can wade, swim, fish or float around the clear, temperate and gorgeous waters. Our 2-story beach house boasts nearly 1500 square feet of living space with 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a utility room with washer and dryer & shower, a living room with Fire Stick TV, dining room, sitting room with Roku TV and board games, kitchen with large island bar, attached garage we call the world's largest dock box, filled with bicycles, kayaks, paddle boards, a splash mat, foosball table, fishing poles & more all to help you make the best family memories to last a lifetime! Stretching from the shoreline is your own private dock for use to launch water toys into the bay or to sit and soak up the sun! Situated on 7000 square feet of land, you can spend time off the water on the plush, manicured and landscaped lawn sitting in the shade of the gazebo or in the sunshine while relaxing on cushioned outdoor furniture, taking a well-deserved nap on the patio sofa, playing bean bag toss with your group, swinging from the giant tree swing or grilling out. The water that runs to the home is from a private well. If you are accustomed to drinking city water, we want to give you some information about well water. Ferric Iron (Fe) and Manganese (Mn) are found together in many private wells. Although it can give the water a yellowish tint, it does not pose any risk to health and is completely safe to drink. Our well is tested annually and you can find our latest report in the back of this book., swinging from the giant tree swing or grilling out! Take your morning coffee or tea out on patio or set a chair atop the grand glacier stones while watching the sunrise. A Nespresso machine and a drip coffee pot are in the kitchen ready to kick start your day! The house is also equipped with a high speed Electric Vehicle charging point and WiFi to keep you connected. Sand Bay Point is a peninsula between the waters of Sand Bay and Riley's Bay with a 2-mile loop around the perimeter, great for morning runs or evening strolls. Haines Park, a public sand beach, is a half mile away and is a fun spot for building sand castles and having sunset picnics. Want to get out on a boat to fish the fresh water?
