7792 Thornapple Bayou Drive

Overview

Exceptional 435 feet of private frontage on all sports Thornapple River. One-of-a-kind setting on a peninsula with water frontage on 2 sides of the property in both the Bayou and the deep-water main tributary of the Thornapple. Set on a 1.1 acre lot, this gives you both the land and river frontage to enjoy your own haven now and the future potential to expand. The Bayou offers a peaceful retreat of quiet water, birds, cattails, and deer nestled by still water. While the river side enjoys western sunset views off the point and access to all sports recreation and boating on the wide waterways. Long stretches of river from the 68th street dam to the Cascade Dam make this a perfect place to explore from kayak, canoe, pontoon or your craft. The home was substantially remodeled and nearly completely rebuilt in 2000. It offers Anderson/Pella windows that draw the dramatic views into every room. Rec room on 2nd floor maximizing views instead of hiding in the basement. A rare find!

Property details

What to ask about this one

Three questions worth putting to the listing side before you write anything. They are specific to this property, not a checklist.

1. 01

   Confirm the bottomland ownership and what the dock permit allows

2. 02

   Check the lake board's rules on watercraft and no-wake hours

3. 03

   Budget for a pre-1978 inspection — lead paint, knob-and-tube, and the roof

4. 04

   Ask what the taxable value uncaps to after the sale, not what the seller pays now
