Playing on your own private beach on the week-

ends, then commuting to Chicago or Milwaukee

for work ... this dream can be your reality in the

300 year old community of Racine. Located on

the sandy western shore of Lake Michigan, it offers

small town neighborliness along with easy access

to the resources and attractions of two great cities.

Enjoying the water is a way of life in Racine. Dock

your boat at any of the five nearby marinas, or join

the Racine Yacht Club for the weekly races, cruises

and instructional programs. North Beach lures you

to spend the day sunning, swimming or watching

the many beach and water sports competitions

held here.

square feet of outdoor living area. Of course, the

water is always the star attraction. Enjoy lakefront

panoramas from nearly every room, as well as the

infinity pool and especially your own private beach.

Located at 3433 Michigan Boulevard, this magnifi-

cent lakefront estate will be offered for live absolute

The formal living room with its decorative moulding,

carved gas fireplace and original walnut hardwood

flooring, exudes elegance and warmth, perfect for

entertaining guests in comfort and style. Built-in

bookshelves flank the fireplace, and the one on the

right holds a whimsical secret: a hidden door to the

wine cellar.

Thanks to its fortuitous place in the home’s layout,

the living room is filled with light, offering views

both to the beautifully landscaped drive in front

and through double doors to Lake Michigan in back.

SOUTHERN C’s RANCH10

State-of-the-art wine storage meets Old World

ambiance in this impressive cellar. Authentic

materials were reclaimed to create the custom design:

intricately carved doors from a Spanish monastery,

French paver bricks for the floor, and barn beams

for the shelving.

The functionality, however, is pure 21st century.

Temperature and humidity controls with alarm

maintain your precious vintages in optimal condi-

tions. You could even host a wine tasting event here

(and clean up afterwards), with a fully equipped

wet bar, refrigerator and freezer drawers, icemaker

and dishwasher drawer all at your fingertips.

Wine Cellar


Wrap-around views of the infinity pool and Lake

Michigan take this welcoming room to the next

level of drama and allure. Part of the 2008 expan-

sion, it is equipped with popular features for today’s

living, such as in-floor radiant heat and in-ceiling

speakers for the housewide AV system.

This comfortable escape just off the kitchen and

breakfast nook is perfect for casual gatherings of

family and friends, to relax after dinner or watch

the big game on TV.

Family Room

Guest Bedroom

Dinner guests won’t fail to be impressed by this

elegant room with its showstopping antique fireplace

reclaimed from a Queens, New York, courthouse.

Colonial crown moulding, wall sconces and the

rich glow of walnut hardwood flooring complete a

setting worthy of your finest culinary masterpieces.

As you dine, the endless lake view makes a breath-

taking backdrop. After dinner, invite guests to step

through the door to the outdoor entertaining area

and sip their coffee under the stars.

FormalDining Room

A full staff of caterers could work comfortably in

this spacious kitchen; and even if it’s just family,

you’ll appreciate the separate cooking and bar areas

and large butler’s pantry which gives everyone plenty

of room to move. Commercial grade equipment

includes 2 Sub-Zero refrigerators plus refrigerator

drawers; a dedicated freezer; Wolf double oven;

2 Wolf warmers; 2 microwaves; 3 dishwashers;

3 sinks; icemaker; and TV.

heart with solid wood cabinetry, American walnut

(below), depicting Gregorian monks making wine.

Near the garage and butler’s pantry, secluded from

the hustle and bustle of family living areas, the

office provides a quiet retreat where you can work,

read or catch up on your blogs without distrac-

tions. There’s plenty of storage built into the room,

including an entire wall of shelving plus a closet

with more built-in cabinets – enough to organize

a large library or the paperwork of an entire business.

Master Suite


Ultimate luxury is yours in this extensive suite

occupying an entire wing of the upper level. Here

you can curl up next to the fireplace, gaze out on

your spectacular view of Lake Michigan, listen to

music from the in-ceiling speakers or monitor your

master controls of the AV and security systems.

For ultimate convenience – and indulgence – each

of you has your own separate dressing room and

bath where you can get ready in the morning or

relax at the end of the day in peaceful seclusion.

For the lady of the house, every luxury imaginable

has been built into this spacious dressing complex.

In the bath, you may choose a long soak in the

spa tub overlooking the lake, or a sybaritic shower

surrounded by a rain head, 6 body jets and a

handheld. Both draw from two water heaters, so

you’ll never run out of hot water. And when you

step out, you’ll appreciate the comfort of a heated

marble floor.

The huge walk-in closet will satisfy the desires of

any fashionista. Custom wood vanities, including

a separate hair/makeup vanity, add to the extraor-

dinary storage capacity of this bath/dressing suite.

HerMaster Bath


The gentleman’s bath/dressing complex is regal

in design as well as its luxury-class fittings. The

centerpiece is the limestone shower equipped with

a rain shower, 6 body jets and a handheld. Onyx

countertops and a heated marble floor provide

distinctive finishing touches to the bath.

In the dressing area, custom closets accommodate

an extensive wardrobe and haberdashery, while the

mirrored doors let you check the final presentation

before heading out.

HisMaster Bath

Shown is one of the two lakeside guest bedrooms –

each with its own private en-suite full bath – which

look out over the pool and Lake Michigan stretching

to the horizon. Oak hardwood floors and colonial

moulding bring charming touches of tradition to

these guest suites.

The other two guest bedrooms share a bath and

can also be accessed from the rear staircase – ideal

for extended family stays or an au pair suite. The

space could also be converted to a theater or game

room where the kids can play without disturbing

the adults.

Guest Bedroom

The freeform infinity pool, filled with heated salt-

water and featuring a whirlpool jet spa, is the focal

point of this home’s more than 2000 square feet of

outdoor entertaining space.

Just below the infinity edge is a catchment/wading

pool with built-in bench where you can sit and feel

the waterfall cascade onto your shoulders as you

gaze at the sweeping lake panorama before you.

Pool and Spa



This versatile entertaining area lets you turn indoors

into outdoors – and vice versa – depending on

your needs and desires for the occasion. Outfitted

with a gas fireplace, grill, TV and ceiling speakers,

it’s an idyllic spot to watch the sunrise over

Lake Michigan or throw a traditional Wisconsin

beer-and-brats fest by moonlight. Electronically

controlled screens and storm shutters descend at

the touch of a button for total protection from the

elements.

the steps from the back garden. Sunbathe, swim

or put your jet skis directly into the water and go!
