ROSSE POINTE SHORES, MI — Imagine waking up to the sound of waves gently lapping against the shore, just steps from your back door. This stunning lakefront estate at 1010 Lake Shore Road in Grosse Pointe Shores offers the ultimate in luxury and serenity.

    Listed for $3,499,000 through @properties Christie's International Real Estate and Lux Partners Global with associate broker Nicholas Asplund, this one-of-a-kind property is a rare find. "Homes on the water in Grosse Pointe are few and far between," Asplund notes. "This property is unique because it's waterfront yet very private."

    The breathtaking lakefront estate, built in 2002 with European architectural influences, sits on nearly two acres along the shores of Lake St. Clair. With gated access and a wooded drive leading to a grand residence featuring a dramatic two-story domed foyer and floating staircase, this home exudes elegance and sophistication.

    Five private bedroom suites, including a main-floor primary sanctuary with stunning lake views, offer the perfect balance of luxury and comfort. The master suite is massive, facing the lake and designed to capture all of the water views. The main bathroom features dual vanities created from antique Chinese tables and sinks, hardware and light fixtures by Sherle Wagner.

    The estate boasts extensive custom cabinetry throughout, touch-latch drawers lined in Pacific Silvercloth for silver storage, and a collection of built-in antiques and architectural elements from France, China, and Africa. A dual kitchen makes this home perfect for dinner parties, with a show kitchen featuring Fisher & Paykel dishwasher drawers, an ice machine, and wine refrigerator.

    Additional highlights include French doors throughout leading to lakefront terrace and lawn, a whole-home generator, hand-selected lighting, fixtures, and textiles. The beautifully landscaped grounds feature a motor court, four-car garage, and sweeping lawn that leads to a steel seawall with a concrete walkway along the water's edge.

    Located just minutes from Grosse Pointe Yacht Club, Country Club of Detroit, and Lake Shore Road's scenic corridor, this property offers unmatched privacy, elegance, and serenity. Asplund notes, "We have a lot of interest from out-of-state cash buyers looking for better values than the major cities, and Lake St. Clair offers exactly that."
