About this property

Unequaled Location next to Wilsons Ice Cream Parlor on Ephraim's Harbor and dock

Welcome to Heritage Harbor House, Residence 1. The greatest amenity is the location, very honestly the best in Door County. The second is the view. Being on the second floor means you have spectacular unobstructed views of the harbor for miles. Imagine sitting around the Great Room/Kitchen’s gathering spot, a 10 foot kitchen counter island with your friends or family sipping coffee after breakfast in a conversation about memories or planning your Door County day all while looking at your magical view of Ephraim’s harbor from the oversized windows in this second floor home. A perfect spot for lazy breakfasts, easy going days and nights full of conversation and family time overlooking the sparkling water.

Once you have had some fun getting-together at the kitchen island you walk a few steps to the Great Room with vaulted ceilings, the fireplace, a flat screen TV, and plenty of seating for your family to relax and enjoy the lovely harbor beyond. When you are not looking at the view you can look at the gas fireplace centered on the spectacular shiplap wall. Overall a very unique, light and bright layout.

You can see the private dock suitable for up to a 21 foot boat from your second floor home. Swimming, pontoon boats, paddle boating, para sailing, kayaking, sailing cruises, and jet skis are all just steps from the dock to rent.

The residence has two bedrooms and a study alcove. One of the bedrooms has an envious view of the water from the queen bed and private bathroom with a tiled shower. The second bedroom views the wooded bluffs with a king bed and a large private bathroom and tiled shower. The study alcove has a desk and two folding beds that can be used comfortably in the alcove or easily elsewhere in the home. Next to the study is a convenient half bath.

And yes the entire residence is new top to bottom… just completed. The owner decorated the home with tremendous attention to detail. Everything is hand picked and reflects the happy and fun Door County lifestyle.

The home offers everything you might possibly need. A kitchen well equipped to whip up favorite family recipes. You’ll find all dishes, glassware, dishwasher dish soap etc., bath towels, toilet paper, hairdryer in each bathroom and more including your own washer and dryer. All linens and clean towels are provided. There is central A/C and of course, the best high speed wireless internet with cable TV. Expect an exceptionally clean house. Many hours are spent cleaning before you arrive to make it just right because that is most important to ensure your comfortable stay.

So the home is new and also happens to be in the best location in Door County. You are next to Wilson’s Ice Cream Parlor viewing Eagle Harbor in Ephraim. You are literally just steps or minutes away from everything Door County has to offer-restaurants, shops, theatre, parks, water or recreation.

After you check in think about:
*Watching the water, reading, relaxing or falling asleep for a nap. *Cook out or Cook in at your private home in the best Door County location right in the center of the Village just steps from kayaking, sailing, the beach.
*Grabbing a cone from that famous White Ice Cream Parlor, Wilson’s which is next door. Savor the nearby best dining locale like Alexanders, Trixies (next door), or Chop.
*Take a short walk along the shore to the Fish Boil for a delicious Door County traditional dinner experience.
*Plan a morning or afternoon hike or bike ride on the best trails in Door County that you can see in Peninsula State Park from the house.
*For wholesome memorable night theater for families or couples take in the Northern Sky Theater or Peninsula Players just minutes from your home.
*Play golf at Peninsula State Park, one of the best courses which you can see across the harbor from the home.
*Visit unique galleries and shops.

Some families or couples will remember the sunset over the bay, others a special purchase from one of the galleries, still others some exhilarating recreational activity, good old fashioned companionship, fine foods, or retiring in a comfortable bed and breathing pure Door County air and just plain relaxing.

We have created everything new for you with this unique residence and the result not only offers newness but also sunny and bright comfort, privacy, quiet and the convenience of being in the best location in the historic Village of Ephraim. Come stay!
