Property Description
Private Thornapple River frontage on just over an acre, this custom-built Jerry DePersia home is truly a stunner and must-see! DePersia, a huge admirer of Frank Lloyd Wright, reimagined this home around the existing footprint of a 1930s stone cottage, and kept the original stone fireplace and wall! The home features an incredibly private wooded waterfront setting on a dead-end road with very little traffic. Lower bluff access with a cantilevered deck over the river, tons of exterior entertaining areas including fantastic ironwood decking and fresh stone/brick patios. Main floor living includes waterfront primary suite with custom bath and walk-in closet, sliders to exterior and dreamy views at any time of day or night. Chef's kitchen boasts granite and tile, custom Kaptyn Brothers cabinetry throughout, Kohler, Bosch, and Thermador. High ceilings and loads of (new) windows allow for loads of natural light. Finished walkout level adds 2 bedrooms, bath, living room, & wet bar.
