Property Description

Discover a rare blend of privacy, craftsmanship, and waterfront recreation at this distinctive Craftsman-style estate set on 9.08 wooded acres within the Caledonia School District. Offering five bedrooms, 3½ baths, nearly 3,500 finished square feet, and 208 feet of private frontage on the Thornapple River, this property feels like a secluded retreat while remaining just five miles from M-6 and convenient to Gerald R. Ford International Airport, Caledonia, Cascade, and everyday amenities. Expansive windows fill the home with natural light and frame remarkable views across the property. The open-concept main level is designed for both comfortable everyday living and effortless entertaining, with a gourmet kitchen flowing seamlessly into the dining and living areas. Cherry hardwood floors, solid-core doors, three tiled showers, and carefully selected finishes reflect the quality found throughout the home. The main-floor primary suite creates a true private retreat with generous proportions, a walk-in closet, ensuite bath, and its own balcony overlooking the grounds. Additional bedrooms and living spaces across the upper and lower levels provide excellent flexibility for family, guests, a home office, or fitness space. The finished lower level expands the home's entertaining capacity with a spacious recreation room and impressive wet bar. A new metal roof installed in 2025 adds lasting value and peace of mind, but the grounds are what truly separate this property. From the upper deck, the view unfolds across a peaceful pond set within the grassy meadow. Beyond it, a beautifully defined trail leads through the acreage toward the estate's crown jewel: the Thornapple River. A newly constructed wooden boardwalk and riverside viewing platform extend along the shoreline, creating a remarkable setting from which to enjoy the property's 208 feet of private frontage. Closer to the home, architectural stone steps cascade through natural boulder terracing and low-maintenance river-rock landscaping to a secluded patio beneath the mature forest canopy. This private outdoor sanctuary is anchored by a circular lounge with an integrated fire pit and custom curved brick retaining wall—an exceptional setting for quiet mornings, intimate conversations, or evenings gathered beneath the stars. The river invites kayaking, tubing, fishing, and pontoon excursions toward the dam, while the surrounding acreage provides space to explore, unwind, and experience every season. Nearby recreational opportunities include the Thornapple River corridor, Caledonia Lakeside Park, Cascade Peace Park, and Thornapple Pointe Golf Club. Shopping, dining, and services in Caledonia and Cascade are also within easy reach. Whether entertaining indoors, gathering around the fire, walking the private trail to the river, or launching from your own shoreline, this one-of-a-kind estate delivers the space, natural beauty, craftsmanship, and waterfront lifestyle that are increasingly difficult to find. Private, thoughtfully improved, and distinctly different—this is more than a home; it is a destination.
