Where the hillside meets the bay, a limited collection of modern homes is taking shape. Villa Grand Traverse offers sweeping views, refined design and a location just minutes from the heart of Traverse City. Each home is designed with its owner through a guided design process before construction begins, so you choose the homesite, floor plan, finishes, and deck, rooftop terrace and view options. You'll be close to everything that makes Traverse City one of Michigan's most desirable places to live: downtown dining and entertainment, Munson Healthcare, the YMCA, shopping, parks and trails, excellent schools, and Grand Traverse Bay's four-season outdoor life. This plan puts everyday living on one level, with an open, light-filled main floor made for gathering and taking in the view. Past the entry, the kitchen, dining and living areas flow together as one generous space. The kitchen includes a pantry for extra storage. The primary suite is also on the main level and has a comfortable bedroom, a walk-in closet and a private bath. A laundry room off the attached two-car garage keeps daily life easy. The walkout lower level gives guests and family their own space. It has two large bedrooms, each with a full-wall closet, a full bath, and a sizable mechanical and storage area. Outside, vertical cedar, natural stone and a low-slung modern profile let the home settle into the hillside instead of sitting on top of it. 1,704 square feet. Three bedrooms, two baths. Walkout lower level. Attached two-car garage. Base price from $865,000. Fully refundable soft reservations are now being accepted.
