font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">the highest priced residence among active listings in Van Buren County</a> – a 3,987-square-foot house that is under construction on the Lake Michigan shore. It is listed for $2,685,000. That is according to data provided by in the <a href="http://www.swmric.com/" style="color: #305cb6; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">Southwest Michigan Regional Informational Center</a>, which provides information on available real estate in South and West Michigan.<br /><br />At 742 Monroe Boulevard in South Haven, the house will have five bedrooms and five bathrooms on just under 4 acres of land.<br /><br />Designed by <a href="http://www.visbeen.biz/">Wayne Visbeen</a> and built by <a href="http://www.mikeschaapbuilders.com/">Mike Schaap Builders</a>, the beach house is expected to be ready for occupancy by the spring. It will have a spacious kitchen with Viking appliances, custom cabinetry and built-ins throughout. A walkout level will feature a kitchenette and provides access to a private beach without the need for stairs.<br /><br />The house will have decks, patios and a courtyard terrace, and is being built with an abundance of natural building materials, including American cherry floors, mahogany doors, copper roofing and custom millwork. The floorplan includes a vaulted Great Room, an exercise room with a sauna and dressing room, and a master suite with an office and a lake front deck.<br /><br />A guest wing has three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a media room. Rooms on a lower level will include a recreation room.<br />The property is designed for leisure, comfort and function, making it a good investment as a rental income property during the fair-weather months.<br /><br />What makes it worth $2.6 million?<br /><br />“Location, location, location,” Van Horn said, as well as requiring no steps to the beach, “unobstructed views of the pier and lighthouse and the convenient short walk to the quintessential beach town of South Haven.”<br /><br />He said it has high-end finishes and no detail is compromised.<br /><br />Who does he expect will ultimately call the Monroe Blvd residence home?<br /><br />“It likely will be a second home for someone coming in from a large metro area such as Chicago or Indy,” he said. “However we don't rule out the locals. There are plenty of those around that are very capable of falling in love and acquiring the best of Lake Michigan living.”<br /><br />Van Horn may be contacted at 269-673-7133 or via <a href="http://erealestatefirm.com/" style="color: #305cb6; font-weight: bold; text-decoration: none;">chad@erealestatefirm.com</a></div></div>
