Owlwood

A mixture of modern design, an inviting color palette, and curated furnishings create a sophisticated Harbor Country enclave that will impress even the most seasoned traveler. Owlwood boasts 4 ensuite bedrooms, open social areas, high-end appliances, and indoor/outdoor living brilliantly built around a large private courtyard. Pet friendly w/ a nice list of amenities including radiant floors, hot tub, fire pit, outdoor shower, Tesla charger & Apple TV + walk to public beach access 10-min away!

Designed and built by UrbanLab Architects, Owlwood is a unique multi-wing home where every element has been executed to perfection. Set against a panoramic backdrop of peaceful forest views in the middle of Harbor Country, the showstopper at this stunning house is the modern architectural design that allows pure natural light to be enjoyed from nearly every room. Oversized sliding doors and windows throughout beautifully showcase the surrounding nature scape, and every corner of the residence has been expertly styled with a richly refined flair to provide a getaway experience like no other.

SOCIAL WING
A gorgeous kitchen stocked with a deluxe housewares package anchors one end of the main social space with custom terrazzo counters, top-of-the-line appliances, and massive island with bar seating. In the middle, the dining area makes a statement with a farmhouse table that seats 10 and 360° views of the space. On the far end of the room a comfy seating area with leather sofas is ideal for great conversation or watching the Smart TV. Custom lighting designed by UrbanLab, radiant heat concrete floors, and a sleek gas fireplace lend both visual and tactile warmth to the room, while sliding doors all along this room open to the center courtyard allowing for easy access to the fire pit and hot tub.

Head out the glass door off the seating area to access the oversized screen porch. There’s a 10-person table for casual dining, seating area and second gas fireplace to keep the ambiance warm during cooler evenings.

BEDROOM WINGS
Two angular wings comprise the sleeping quarters where the home’s 4 ensuite bedrooms are set up for maximum privacy. Each bedroom is a masterpiece of design simplicity while at the same time rich with lavish features. Sliding doors from every room overlook the courtyard and each bedroom has a gorgeous ensuite bathroom - 3 with a walk-in shower and 1 with a bathtub. Three bedrooms have queen beds and the fourth has a fantastic built-in triple bunk with Twin XL mattresses that kids (and adults) love! Each bunk bed is outfitted with a light, privacy curtains, and an outlet to charge phones and tech. With attention to detail at the forefront of every design element, the beautiful forest image imprinted on the sheer panels and drapes in the bedrooms is a photo taken in Harbert Woods

At the end of these wings is a very quiet den with 3 large glass openings to maximize sunlight and connection to the exterior landscape. The room has a plush sofa, TV, and café table – a great space to get away from the group to study, work remotely, or even play games.

Need to wash clothes during your stay? There is a full laundry room with separate washer & dryer and a laundry sink that connects these 2 wings.

OUTDOOR LIVING
Outdoors is filled with amenities, too. There’s an 8-person hot tub, fire pit, outdoor shower, BBQ grill, and Tesla charger not to mention the expansive green lawn that is perfect for yard games.

When it’s time for a day on the water a short 10-minute walk will take you to the public access beach. Pet friendly, 4-zone HVAC for maximum comfort, beach gear for excursions to the lake, a fab foyer drop zone, and Apple TV add to the long list of thoughtful on-property extras.

Owlwood is conveniently located a 10-minute walk from both Harbert village center and Cherry Beach and just a short distance away from acclaimed restaurants, wineries, breweries, vintage boutiques, and antique shops. It’s also just 70 miles from downtown Chicago.
