Description
Summary
Surrounded by mature trees on 1.25 acres in the Village of Michiana, Wilder Woods is a custom log home by Larry Booth of Booth Hansen. With handcrafted Maple Island logs, a Rumsford fireplace, and three finished levels, the home opens to a private backyard anchored by a heated pool, full cabana, hot tub, and sport court for pickleball and basketball. Screened porches and a firepit gathering area create an atmosphere that’s as welcoming outside as it is indoors.
The Space
At the heart of the home, a dramatic great room is framed by exposed beams and a two-story stone fireplace. Oversized windows draw the landscape in, while deep sofas and rich textures make this a favorite space for both conversation and quiet. The adjacent kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances, dual dishwashers, and a wide island for meal prep and serving. A separate office with built-in shelving offers a private workspace. On the lower level, an entertainment lounge includes a classic Pac-Man game and casual seating for movie nights or card games.
Bedrooms are spread across all three floors, each with its own character and wooded views. From the primary suite to the bunk room below, the layout works well for families, multi-generational groups, or friends traveling together.
Main Level
Primary Bedroom: King bed + ensuite bathroom
Second Level
Bedroom 2: King bed + daybed
Bedroom 3: King bed
Bedroom 4: King bed
Lower Level
Bedroom 5: Queen + Daybed
2 Twin bunk beds (Lower Level)
2 Futon beds (Living room area)
The home includes four full bathrooms and a powder room, each with distinctive stonework, natural wood vanities, and deep soaking tubs. A full laundry room on the lower level is smartly equipped with 2 washers and dryers, folding space, and custom cabinetry for extended stays.
Outside, the pool takes center stage. Set against a backdrop of hardwoods, the heated water, adjacent hot/cold shower, full cabana, and hot tub offer everything needed for a full day outdoors. The screened porch includes lounge seating and a large table for meals and games. A built-in stone grill makes cooking outdoors easy, while the fire pit adds a place to gather after dark. A sports court extends beneath the trees for pickleball, basketball, or open play.
Located in the charming Village of Michiana, Wilder Woods places you just a short walk or bike ride from the shores of Lake Michigan. Spend the day sunbathing or searching for beach glass along the quiet, tree-lined stretch of Stop 39 beach access. Venture into nearby New Buffalo for boutique shopping, art galleries, and dining hotspots like The Stray Dog, Beer Church, and David's Delicatessen. Wine lovers can explore the Lake Michigan Shore Wine Trail, with favorites like Tabor Hill, Dablon, and Hickory Creek just a short drive away. For outdoor adventures, hike Warren Dunes State Park, kayak the Galien River, or bike the lakeside trails that connect Michiana to Union Pier and beyond. From farmers markets and live music to fishing charters and seasonal festivals, this Harbor Country destination offers endless ways to relax, explore, and make unforgettable memories.
Whether you're hiking local nature preserves, hunting for antiques, or exploring nearby towns like Three Oaks and Union Pier, every day here brings a new adventure.
