Today's home might make you fall in love with Ellison Bay, Wisconsin. The home is tucked into the side of a bluff in the a small community near Door Bluff Headlands County Park. The home was designed by Wisconsin Architectural Hall of Fame 'Green' pioneers Willis & Lillian Leenhouts and features wraparound decks on several levels. It was built to make the most of the views and has an lighthouse-like feel to the design. The nautically-inspired teak kitchen has fossilized Ontario limestone countertops, a SubZero refrigerator, six-burner WOLF range, Viking hood, Miele dishwasher and separate SubZero beverage cooler. The home has 400' of Lake Michigan frontage with a new 120' steel & concrete pier with 60' dogleg & 60' extension. A buildable adjacent parcel and teak furniture designed for the original home are also included in the offering. The stunning photography is by Richard Steinberger. This home is listed with Kurt Penn of Sotheby's Realty for $2.895 million.
