An iconic tower usually built on coastlines is a stand-up feature at a home in Waterford Township.
At 3337 Alco Drive, the next owner would have a personal lighthouse for elevated views and a unique architectural bragging point.
The ranch-style home has three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a partial bathroom over 4,000 square feet. It is on the market just for just under $1 million, at $974,900.
The lighthouse gives an elevated view of all-sports Lake Oakland with access to all-sports Woodhull Lake as well as panoramic sunset views.
“It’s two lakes for the price of one,” Heather Rogers, Realtor, said.
The lakes see swimming, boating, ice skating, fishing, kayaking and more.
In addition to its own lighthouse, it also has its own boathouse with its 95 feet of lake frontage.
“To find a lake house that’s secluded, it’s on a dead-end street, has ample parking … that’s rare with lake houses,” Rogers said.
It also features a finished walkout basement with an additional kitchen, a movie room, a large family room, a wet bar, rustic stone fireplace and a full bath with heated floors.
The open kitchen is complete with granite countertops leading to a great room highlighted by a stone fireplace and lake views.
Additional highlights include an oversized heated three-car garage, a tankless water heater and expansive deck alongside the lighthouse.
“This home offers the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility. Whether you’re enjoying peaceful mornings with coffee on the deck or vibrant days on the water, this private waterfront oasis delivers a lifestyle that feels like a vacation every day,” its listing says.
