After six years of market time and a staggering price drop of over $13 million, one of Lake Macatawa’s most well-known waterfront estates has finally sold. The Hazelbank Estate first appeared on the market in 2013 with a hefty price tag of $18.9 million. Over the subsequent years, the price diminished until the homeowner accepted a significantly lower offer of $5.5 million. Designed by the Chicago-based architect John Tilton in collaboration with homeowner Holly Palmer, the estate started construction in 1993 and was finished in 1998. Encompassing 17,500 square feet, the residence boasts four stories, featuring 5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, and a lookout tower that provides a panoramic view of the 38-acre property, which includes stables, pastures, riding trails, an outdoor swimming pool, a pond complete with a waterfall, and extensive manicured lawns. You can enjoy breathtaking sunsets through the expansive floor-to-ceiling windows or unwind in the study, amongst books from the built-in shelving. Each aspect of the home has been thoughtfully selected and masterfully crafted, resulting in a remarkable, coastal-inspired estate. Palmer affirmed to MLive that every room offers a view of the lake, and there are five wood-burning fireplaces, including one in the kitchen that utilizes antique Chicago bricks for its hearth. The property was listed at $8,900,000 before agreeing to the sale.
