Situated directly on Lake Michigan you can enjoy breathtaking views from the home and recently constructed deck. The primary bedroom features a new bathroom and magnificent views of the lake. There are three workspaces perfect for "work from home". Finish your day by relaxing in the hot tub, hammock or by the fire. The home is located in a historic neighborhood just 1 hour and 20 minutes from Chicago and 45 minutes from Milwaukee. Enjoy a walk down nearby College Ave and enjoy the remarkable architecture. You can access the lakefront from a recently constructed staircase in the back yard. The shoreline is rocky but swimming and kayaking is permitted. We provide a 2 person kayak and lifejackets for your use. There are also two lakefront parks within walking distance to the house, one with a small beach. This house was built in 1913, was significantly remodeled in 1963, and then again recently. Look closely for some original features including servant bells and the dumbwaiter (now a laundry chute). There is not central air conditioning, however all of the windows open and the lake breezes keep it much cooler than even one block west. There are window AC units or wall units in every bedroom and the living room. Outdoor amenities include grill, hammock, hot tub, fire table and solo stove. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee grinder - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 2.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Living room ### Entertainment - Games - Music library - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 2 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Recycling ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/101000000/100670000/100663600/100663584/7be7bf5e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lake Michigan Waterfront Designer Villa Racine - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Air conditioning 10 Exceptional 11 reviews CA $564 CA $848 total includes taxes & fees Nov 4 - Nov 5 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-04&endDate=2025-11-05&selected=100663584&PinnedHotelID=100663584&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33710000/33704400/33704374/f1ef2b30.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Enjoy Lakefront living with family!
