About this property
Amazing Sunsets • 280 Ft. Shore • 2.5 Acres • Great Cottage!
This well built ranch home sits on 2.5 beautiful wooded, private acres. The interior of the home is primarily beautifully crafted wood. There are two bedrooms and also 2 Great Rooms! Two, 25x25 ft. rooms with cathedral ceilings and lots of open space. In one of the great rooms there is a door for privacy and a pull out queen sleeper sofa. In the main great room there is a twin size day bed under a window. 2019 new bathroom! This home sits with the most beautiful views of Green Bay waters. Directly facing west, the most amazing sunsets are right out your door, and can be viewed from the master bedroom, dining room, and 2 great rooms.
Every year we like to surprise our return guests with something new. Most recently, removed carpet to expose gorgeous maple floors, washer and dryer, new decks, new furnishings, new roof, new bathroom and much more!
There is a large window porch that has an eating table and a large sofa. There is a roomy open air deck that faces the water attached to the home. There is another large deck halfway down to the water, great for outdoor eating. Then there is a 3rd deck down by the water, perfect for watching the amazing sunsets.
This home sits on a rolling hill filled with grass that walks you down to the 280 ft. of private waterfront. This beach consists of small and a lot of large rock. We are experiencing record high water, so our water frontage is getting hit pretty hard. We always ask that everyone use great care when getting in the water. Water shoes recommended. There is also a nice drop off approx. 50ft out, great for fishing, diving or snorkeling.
You will see fishing boats at a distance as this is a popular area for salmon...you can see them, but they would have trouble seeing you. This home is in a private setting with lots of mature trees.
Sit in the adirondack chairs by the water, swing in the hammock, layout in one of the lounge chairs provided. Relax!!!
This home supplies paper products, cleaning products, bags for your garbage (you are to remove the garbage from the home, directions in the home). You will need to bring linens for the beds: fitted and flat sheets along with pillow cases. You will need bath towels or any towels for outside. Kitchen and bath hand towels are provided. Pillows, comforters and blankets are provided.

About the host
Hosted by Amy Jorgenson

I am a real estate Broker on Washington Island. I work with people on renting and also purchasing homes on the Island. I am from Elmhurst, Illinois and have now lived on the Island full time for 26 years! I have always said, I know I am the luckiest person in the world to be able to live and raise a family on this beautiful Island!
This home was built in 1951 by my grandfather, and has been in my family ever since.
This home was built in 1951 by my grandfather, and has been in my family ever since.
Why they chose this property
My grandpa built this home and at the time he could have chose any place on the Island as there was lots of open space. He liked the high property (to avoid any chance of flooding) yet easy water access. Deep water frontage so he could launch his boat. Convenient location, 10 minutes to town, less than 5 minutes to the Ferry. Peaceful neighborhood with beautiful mature trees. Of course the number one reason, the amazing sunsets year round!
What makes this property unique
Privacy, able to swim with no one else around. Dinner outside, sitting on the deck watching the sunset. Great for family reunions as there is so much 'living' space. Never feel crowded.
