## Description

### Agent Description
We've found your dream home. In your dream location.   Private estate located on 130 feet of Big Glen Lake frontage on the exclusive "Gold Coast" of Glen Lake. This property is ideally located on Northwood Drive, within walking distance of downtown Glen Arbor.  The property has a main home on the waterfront, remodeled in 2000, which is nearly 7,000 square feet, contains five bedrooms, five bathrooms, four fireplaces, three floors of living space, a designated office, and an "Eagle's Nest" hovering above Glen Lake with a towering view of the water. There is also an attached, two car garage. Other notable features include a spacious living room, family room, den, chef's kitchen, two additional kitchenettes, two laundry spaces, a furnace offering heat, air conditioning, and a built-in humidifier, as well as a full-house generator and alarm system.   There are two additional garage outbuildings, one being a a large "game room," and the other being a yoga studio.   Each outbuilding offers an additional 1,200 square feet of usable space, bringing the square footage of these three buildings to over 9,000 square feet, and the garage space to six stalls.   The "game room" has its own two car garage with a sizeable living space above that is equipped with a bar, billiards table, dining/card playing space, small kitchen, and built in bunk beds. It also has its own bathroom. The garage below is also home to a gym area, adjacent to the two vehicle parking spaces.   The second outbuilding, the yoga studio, also sits above another attached, two car garage. It is open, light filled, and has its own bathroom with a soaking tub.   Most importantly, this property is home to a wide and expansive sandy beach, a treehouse along the water, playset, dock, beautifully manicured gardens, as well as pickleball and basketball courts. The property depth is 500 feet and it is situated on approximately 1.5 acres.
