Property Description
This isn't a cosmetic refresh. This is a complete rebuild. Set in the heart of downtown Pentwater -- steps from the beach, the harbor, and the village shops -- this 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick cottage was stripped to the studs and rebuilt from the ground up over the course of a full year. New plumbing, electrical, insulation, drywall, flooring, windows, doors, cabinetry, and hardware. Both fireplaces fully updated. Exterior professionally prepped, primed, and painted. The result is a home that carries the warmth of a classic Michigan cottage with the reliability of new construction. The main house is move-in ready: all-new appliance suite, updated central gas heat with new floor registers, fresh lighting and ceiling fans throughout, and a roof that's been treated, cleaned, and galvanized-weather protected. A partially finished basement holds a non-conforming bedroom or dedicated office space and plenty of storage.
