4046 Hillside Trail -- A Reimagined Harbor Country Retreat 4 Bed · 3.5 Bath · Steps to Dead End & Stop 40 Beaches Some homes get updated. This one was rebuilt -- down to the studs -- by a thoughtful architect who understood that great lake houses aren't just pretty on the surface. At 4046 Hillside Trail, every system is new, every finish is intentional, and the result is one of the most comprehensively renovated retreats available in Harbor Country today. A short stroll brings you to Michiana's beloved Dead End Beach and Stop 40 -- two of the most cherished stretches of shoreline in the region. Come home to crisp board-and-batten siding, updated exterior doors, and a welcoming front deck that sets the tone the moment you arrive. Inside, the great room commands attention: vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, expansive windows, and folding glass doors that open fully to the deck, erasing the line between inside and out. The space comfortably accommodates large gatherings -- -- whether it's a summer dinner for a crowd or a quiet evening -- while still maintaining a sense of warmth and ease. The relocated kitchen was designed for real use, featuring quartz countertops, solid wood soft-close cabinetry, custom drawer storage, and all-new stainless steel appliances. A chic powder room completes the main-level entertaining space. Two bedrooms are located on the main level, including a serene primary suite with a spa-inspired bath. The lower level offers two additional bedrooms and two full baths -- including a spacious en suite -- along with a generous family room, creating flexibility for guests, extended stays, or separate living space. What's been done -- All new plumbing, electrical, and HVAC -- New insulation and water heater -- Rebuilt structural elements with leveled floors -- Engineered hardwood flooring on the main level -- New drain tile system and sump pump -- Updated exterior siding, doors, and front deck Step outside and the canvas opens up. The backyard offers approximately 3,500 square feet -- a generous footprint for a truly personal outdoor retreat. Imagine a fire pit gathering area beneath the stars and layered landscaping to create privacy and definition. There is also an opportunity to add a deck off the primary suite, further enhancing the connection to the backyard and creating an elevated outdoor living space among the trees -- ideal for relaxing, dining, or simply taking in the setting. The lower-level en suite opens to its own private outdoor area that can be screened with natural landscaping -- a retreat within a retreat. With appropriate approvals, modern septic technology may allow for additional enhancements such as expanded outdoor living or a plunge pool. A simple gravel extension at the front offers the opportunity to enhance parking and everyday functionality. Ready for the summer -- and the years -- you've been imagining.
