WHAT
Tanglewood, as the name evokes, is a beloved place where nature’s song amid wood, stream, pond, and bay fill the air. Here along the quiet shore of Grand Traverse Bay near Omena is this custom 5-bedroom, 3-bath Town & Country Cedar home crafted with logs from this very land. Hand-hewn woodwork and solid core doors, custom maple cabinets and maple floors, granite island kitchen designed for cooking and entertaining, and views that will take your breath away. The floor plan is modern, open and spacious—vaulted ceiling, natural stone fireplace, main level master suite, and private office, formal and casual dining, and a screened gazebo.
This is one level living at its best. All guest rooms and a bunk style bonus room are upstairs providing maximum privacy. The lower level walk-out offers flexible space. A wide path to the beach provides convenient access for launching watercraft; near the shore is a storage shed. With 274 feet of frontage and 2.42 acres, the landscape, gardens and pathways naturally deliver privacy and a joyful state of peace.
Enduring half log exterior, 2 x 6 post and beam construction, no chinking.

Portions of the deck rails were replaced and refinished, and deck was sanded and finished in 2013. Great room fireplace is gas or could be wood. Forced air natural gas furnace is prepped for A/C.
