Updated family-friendly 2 blks from the beach and across from the park & golf

Our Mid-century modern split level home is just a couple blocks from the white sand beach and azure water of Lake Michigan. It’s also very close to a park with playground, tennis/pickle, and basketball. On weekends, you can stroll down the street to our neighborhood cafe for coffee, fresh doughnuts, ice cream or nearby pizza.

There are 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths on the main level where there are cathedral ceilings throughout, a modern kitchen with granite counter tops and massive island. There is ample seating that opens to the living room with television and a gigantic fireplace. The home features a large screened-in porch off the kitchen that has plenty of space for relaxing and dining on warm summer evenings. Next to the porch is a small fire pit for three and has gas grill.

The lower level has an extra quiet bedroom across from a large bathroom with clawfoot tub and separate walk-in shower. There’s an area with a table and chairs for games, and an enclosed laundry area. There’s also a Den with fireplace (not used in summer), a view of the pine trees in the park and set up as an additional sleeping area with sofa bed, TV and additional seating. The home sits back from the street on the rise of a dune with a view of a small park, parking area, community center and golf course in the background. The property is flanked by two homes. One you can be seen from the kitchen and dinning room but is partially obscured by a wood fence and dune grass.

The home is perfectly situated to enjoy all the amenities that Long Beach has to offer.
