Outdoor Space
Imagine kicking back on 1,400 sq. ft. of deck where you can peacefully relax while taking in the breath-taking views and panorama. Bald eagles, red-tailed hawks, deer, and foxes are frequently seen around the property …. a view that you’ll never grow tired of. Summit and Schuss Mountains in the distance east and the Torch Lake Cellars winery settled on a mountain top across the Lake from our home to the west. Wildlife frequents the property, so you don’t have to go far if you are a hunter.

Highpointe Bellaire offers a peaceful and spacious setting for guests to unwind and enjoy all the comforts of a Northern Michigan getaway.
Things to do
Of course, there is lots to do in this exceptional part of northern Michigan and very close by. Swimming and boating in Lake Bellaire in Central Intermediate Chain of Lakes and Torch Lake all are just minutes away and these are just to name a few. Antrim county has more lakes than any other county in Michigan.
This is a wonderful place to spend the winter holidays and experience Northern Michigan at one of its most beautiful times of year. During winter, four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive with good tires is strongly recommended. And have good tires as well. Most of the time snow is not an issue but you never know with mother nature. We use a reliable snow removal company but with this house you should have All wheel or 4 Wheel Drive to navigate the drive up and down the hill just in case of an ice storm. We have salt and sand barrels strategically located along our private drive for this situation.
The views during the winter are Icelandic which I find more beautiful than during the summer. You can see the snow-covered lake under the moon and stars at night. Other than that, it’s almost pitch dark out there which is so cool because there is hardly any house lights around the lake during the winter. This is especially true on our side of the lake which is comprised mostly of wetlands preventing residential development along the lake waterfront. My absolute favorite time is Autumn when the enveloping forest literally explodes with yellows, reds and oranges. Our home is positioned on top a hill which boasts the most breathtaking views of Lake Bellaire which are astounding all year round. It’s one of the most unique panoramic views that you will ever see.
