The Blue Moon — Mid-century modern near the shore | House in Douglas
3 Bedroom House in Douglas
OVERVIEW
This 1950s mid-century home sits on a quiet, landscaped lot in the heart of Douglas — just blocks from Lake Michigan beaches, the Kalamazoo River, and the boutique shops and galleries of Saugatuck. With over 2,700 sq ft of single-story living, it’s the kind of place that feels like a home, because it is one.
THE SPACE
Step inside to an open-concept living area anchored by a cozy gas fireplace, flowing naturally into a dining space that’s built for real gatherings. The chef’s kitchen is a standout — premium appliances, a wet bar, and a one-of-a-kind original heated island countertop, a true conversation piece that guests always want to know the story behind. An eat-in area opens directly onto the screened-in porch, where you’ll want to linger long after the meal is done.
The porch overlooks a custom fenced and professionally landscaped backyard — and a water feature fills the space with just enough sound to make the rest of the world feel very far away. Morning coffee here, or a late-night glass of wine with the water running, feels like a small luxury every single day.
Three generous bedrooms include a luxurious primary suite with an oversized zero-threshold shower — thoughtfully designed for guests of all ages and abilities. Two and a half baths ensure there’s plenty of room and privacy for the whole group. Downstairs, the lower level offers bonus space for games, movie nights, or simply spreading out.
Modern conveniences include an attached 2.5-car garage, a well-appointed laundry and mud room, and the kind of quiet, well-considered details that make a stay easy from the first hour.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD
Step outside and you’re already somewhere worth being. Woosah Art + Coffee is directly across the street — a beloved local institution where founder Erica Lang’s handcrafted woodcut prints line the walls alongside your morning latte. They also rent bikes, beach chairs, and umbrellas, making it effortless to head out for the day without hauling a thing. Next door, Barking Dogs Italian Ice serves up all-natural, gluten-free, dairy-free Italian ice daily until 11pm — a guaranteed crowd-pleaser for guests of every age. And a few steps further, the Douglas Root Beer Barrel has been serving cold root beer on tap since 1952, a quintessential stop that never gets old.
The paved walking and biking path runs right alongside the house and ends at Douglas Beach. Rent a bike from Woosah, hop on the path, and you’re at the water in minutes.
The Saugatuck/Douglas area — known as Michigan’s Art Coast — offers sandy Lake Michigan beaches, renowned art galleries, the Kalamazoo River, acclaimed dining, and a lively festival calendar across all four seasons.
