About the Home
If you're looking for a character-filled vintage home with all the benefits of new construction in a prime walking neighborhood, this is the home for you! Walk to the beach, Longshore CC and Saugatuck restaurants/train from this beautifully restored and expanded 4 BR antique home at Compo Beach. The circa 1800 Thomas Bennett house was completely rebuilt in 2024 using the finest materials, while respecting the home's original architecture and historic detail. 200-year-old wide plank floors and hand-hewn beams grace a new open floor plan filled with natural light that perfectly supports today's lifestyles. The period inspired Kitchen features inset cabinetry, burnished brass hardware, Bertazzoni appliances and pendant lights from Devol. A Walk-in Pantry with wine fridge stores foodstuffs and keeps small appliances out of site. The Family Room features the home's cooking hearth, now a wood-burning FPL with original mantel and beehive oven. A gracious Living Rm or Office/Study is found off the entry foyer featuring the home's historic doorway and sidelights. On the 2nd floor are 4 Bedrooms, 3 Full Baths and Laundry Room. The Primary Suite has marble bath with heated floors and custom fitted walk-in closets. The Level Fenced Backyard has sunny southwest exposure. A new finished LL Flex Space/Play Rm/Gym completes this wonderfully reimagined historic home!
