A totally redesigned fireplace fits in perfectly with the new aesthetic of the home. Tall drapes and valances draw the eye to the high ceilings. An oversized chandelier is a bright pop of gold and works as a statement piece. Photographer: Trevor Ward Photography

Northern Michigan summers are best spent on the water. The family can now soak up the best time of the year in their wholly remodeled home on the shore of Lake Charlevoix. This beachfront infinity retreat offers unobstructed waterfront views from the living room thanks to a luxurious nano door. The wall of glass panes opens end to end to expose the glistening lake and an entrance to the porch. There, you are greeted by a stunning infinity edge pool, an outdoor kitchen, and award-winning landscaping completed by Drost Landscape. Inside, the home showcases Birchwood craftsmanship throughout. Our family of skilled carpenters built custom tongue and groove siding to adorn the walls. The one of a kind details don’t stop there. The basement displays a nine-foot fireplace designed and built specifically for the home to keep the family warm on chilly Northern Michigan evenings. They can curl up in front of the fire with a warm beverage from their wet bar. The bar features a jaw-dropping blue and tan marble countertop and backsplash. / Photo credit: Phoenix Photographic

The pops of blue in the great room are reflected on the patio outside. Blue and gray outdoor furniture make the space feel like a continuation of the indoor area and provides plenty of seating for visiting guests. Photographer: Trevor Ward Photography
