7579 Margaret Avenue

Behind the gates of Mountain Beach, where legacy homes are held tightly and opportunities seldom arise, this custom-built retreat by Mike Schaap Builders grants what so few ever find: direct, bluff-free frontage on Lake Michigan, deep-water docking on all-sports Pigeon Lake, and a front-row seat to the full theater of lake life—from golden sunrises to incandescent sunsets that melt beneath the water.
A gently undulating foredune filled with dune grass is all that separates this home from the sugar-sand shoreline—no bluff, no stairs, no compromise—just barefoot access to the water's edge and an experience of the lake that is as effortless as it is unforgettable. Here, land and water converge to offer a rhythm that restores the soul—where every day feels like vacation. Inside, the home unfolds with intention- turnkey. Every space a composition of natural textures, thoughtful luxuries, and timeless coastal design invites connection. Five bedrooms and six baths ensure effortless hosting, while the lakeside porch blurs the line between indoors and out, offering the perfect oasis for morning coffee or post-beach lingering. The kitchen stands as both elegant showcase and culinary engine, appointed for performance and seamless entertaining. Downstairs, the lower level unveils an entertainer's haven where a dedicated fitness space and an open-concept media lounge complete with a 4K projector and immersive surround sound invites effortless leisure. A private guest suite enjoys direct access to a luxurious full bath, offering visitors the comfort of a five-star stay.
The primary suite captures sweeping views of Lake Michigan, transforming everyday rituals into moments of reverie where each sunrise feels like a curated masterpiece, ushering in the day with quiet grandeur. Step through to your private deck, an elevated vista point for centering your thoughts with morning light or unwinding beneath the stars. Dual walk-in closets lend refined organization to cherished collections, while the spa-caliber bath invites indulgence with an oversized soaking tub perfectly positioned to take in the lake's ever-changing beauty.
And when adventure calls? Let it begin at your own dock. Cruise Pigeon Lake, ski its glassy surface, or drift into Lake Michigan for a sunrise swim in your own backyard. Nearby, winding bike trails invite exploration through dune and forest, while the vibrant coastal allure of Grand Haven and Holland brimming with boutiques, acclaimed eateries, and harborfront charm awaits just minutes from your doorstep.
This private shoreline sanctuary is a stage for celebration, a canvas for memory, and a place where time itself seems to soften. Here, you're granted the lifestyle most only dream of one where generations will gather, memories will root, and one where every day begins and ends on the water.
