SPRING LAKE, MI — A pub-style bar and wine cellar will have guests coming back for a second round.
Listed at $5,995,900 by broker Sandi Gentry of REMAX Lakeshore, the 8,262-square-foot estate, at 19201 North Shore Road in Spring Lake, is MLive’s House of the Week. The series showcases distinctive homes from across Michigan every Wednesday.
Gentry described North Shore Drive as “the most desired area on Lake Michigan” where properties rarely become available. The lack of a bluff and steps, she said, distinguishes the location from other lakefront areas.
“You just walk right out to the lake. There’s no steps, no nothing,” Gentry said. “That is the beauty of it.”

The property, known as Summer Wind, includes five bedrooms and four full bathrooms plus two half bathrooms.
The lower level houses a climate-controlled wine cellar that holds 1,100 bottles and a pub-style bar. Gentry said the current owner used the area for entertaining.
“The entertaining is unbelievable because it’s where everybody wants to be,“ Gentry said.
The stretch of shoreline has attracted high-net-worth residents, Gentry said, and the property would suit buyers who enjoy treating guests.
The main level includes a great room with floor-to-ceiling windows framing lake views, a kitchen with custom cabinetry, and a four-season sunroom with radiant heated floors and a wet bar. An elevator provides access to all three levels of the home.
The primary bedroom suite occupies part of the upper level and connects to a two-story library with maple ceilings and built-in cabinetry.
Three additional bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and a loft room complete the upper floor.
