Property Description
There are properties that speak boldly and others that speak softly. This one does both—A rare, once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an extraordinary 1.2-acre water view estate in the heart of West Bloomfield. This custom-built masterpiece was designed and constructed by renowned builder William Lorimer as his personal residence—a timeless blend of architectural elegance and natural beauty.
Thoughtfully crafted to showcase the surrounding woods and sparkling water, every detail reflects exceptional craftsmanship and vision. The open, airy floor plan offers sweeping 180-degree views of water and local wildlife. The inviting family room features a sunken conversation area framed with 100-year-old reclaimed barn wood, a striking natural stone fireplace, and stunning floor-to-ceiling windows that erase the boundary between indoors and out.
The main level includes a library with a full bath, easily adaptable into a luxurious first-floor bedroom suite. Upstairs, you'll find four spacious bedrooms and three full bathrooms. The primary suite is a true retreat, complete with its own fireplace, private balcony with water views, dual walk-in closets, and a bonus flex room—perfect as a dressing room, studio, or third closet.
The finished walkout basement is full of character, showcasing exposed brickwork, century-old barn wood beams and walls, a greenhouse, a custom wet bar, and a wine cellar—ideal for entertaining or quiet relaxation. Recent upgrades include a newer furnace and A/C, along with professional basement waterproofing by Michigan Waterproofing (full list of updates available).
Set in a peaceful, prestigious neighborhood within the Birmingham School District, this home offers serenity and privacy, yet is just minutes from major roads, upscale shopping, and fine dining.
This is more than a home—it's a retreat, a lifestyle, and a rare sanctuary where every day feels like a getaway. Move-in ready and waiting for you to write the next beautiful chapter.
