Novi, MI Lakefront Luxury Stunner Priced 2M Below Replacement Value

🏡 Welcome to 25535 Shoreline Drive, Novi, MI

Properties of this caliber rarely grace the market. If you've been waiting for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enjoy residential lakefront living at its absolute finest, and if you have a true appreciation for superlative, beyond-premium quality, this is an offering you do not want to miss.

The original owners paid $2.6 million for the home in 2003, and they've never stopped improving it. To date, they've invested an additional $845,000, bringing their total investment in the home to over $3.4 million. The insurance replacement value on the dwelling alone is $4.7 million (and, given that the original lot premium was four hundred and five thousand, this is arguably a $5-million-plus home).

The home boasts over 8,000 square feet of beyond luxurious living space, and includes five bedrooms, five full baths, and three half-baths. There are two different two-car garages, and an oversized, brick paver driveway with ample side parking for guests.

What really takes this home over the top is the combination of a stunning physical residence where literally no expense was spared and which has been impeccably maintained, the most impressive outdoor finishings we've ever seen in this market, and topped off with THE premier location in one of the area's most prestigious locales, Island Lake.

Highlights include a 1.37 acre lakefront lot that boasts extreme privacy, a maintenance-free all brick and stone exterior, and landscaping and hardscaping that are beyond extraordinary. It is no exaggeration to say that the exterior is like something out of a movie, and includes an incredible yard with a deep kidney shaped pool with a waterslide, an app-controlled waterfall and an app-controlled recirculating river, multiple stone patios, stone walkways that run from the driveway to the pool set amid meticulously maintained hedge rows, multiple gas grills, an outdoor refrigerator and 150 feet of frontage on Island Lake, including a private sandy beach with a dock.

The first floor features a dramatic two-story foyer with dual curved staircases, a chandelier and custom, hand painted murals, an open, flowing floor plan perfect for entertaining parties large and small alike, a huge gourmet kitchen with Woodmode cabinets, a built-in coffee maker, a breakfast bar, and a large eating area with doorwall access to an incredible stone patio set amid stunning landscaping, a two-story dining room with column accents and beautiful views of the lake, and three different large living spaces: a living room with a fireplace, a family room with a fireplace, and a rustic conservatory with a vaulted ceiling and yet another fireplace. The main level also features a guest suite with a full bath, a stately library with a coffered ceiling and a large laundry. There is Travertine stone flooring on much of the first floor.

Moving to the second floor, there is a huge primary suite with a fireplace featuring a custom mantle, a large sitting area, walk-in his and hers closets, a balcony overlooking the lake and a stunning primary bathroom. The remaining three second floor bedrooms are large and have direct access to full bathrooms, and one has a balcony overlooking the lake.

Heading to the lower level, there is a massive finished walkout with a second kitchen, multiple large living spaces, a bar area, built in shelving in two different spaces, a workout room, a full bath with a sauna, a half bath, two different doorwall accesses to the pool deck, and multiple, immaculately-kept storage areas.

All of the full baths in the home have heated floors, and there is also a central vac system.

All that and award-winning Novi schools. Plus the owners just spent one hundred thousand dollars refreshing the paint and all of the carpet.

This is a generational estate that speaks of extreme taste and a true appreciation for the finest things in life. This is an exceptional opportunity, and an amazing value for the dollar.

In a world of cookie cutter McMansions, even at the luxury level, this is a true, one of a kind masterpiece.
