Known locally as The A-Frame of Saugatuck, this historic landmark was originally built in the 1950s, and in 2022, the Sinchaks decided to renovate the home while preserving as much of its historic nature as possible. The home remains less than 15 feet from the water’s edge and its iconic, A-shaped roof remains its most recognizable feature.
As A-frames are known for their interior abundance of natural light, this home’s entire waterfront has become a wall of windows with expansive, unrivaled view of the water and downtown Saugatuck. Plus, the interior of the home has been expanded to include bedrooms, lofts, and luxury modern home amenities like a rooftop deck veranda. During holidays, the panoramic firework views are unparalleled.
A unique property requires a spectacular location, which is why The A-Frame of Saugatuck is positioned directly across the lake from downtown Saugatuck. Yet, it doesn’t only have the most spectacular views of the entire downtown, the A-frame is a short walk away from Saugatuck’s famous public Chain Ferry, which shuttles our guests downtown, no driving or parking necessary.
The A-Frame of Saugatuck provides a rare combination of Saugatuck Harbor and private dock, downtown restaurants and dune hiking at Mount Baldhead, access to Lake Michigan and a harbor full of boats, music, and amazing views. Like we said, spectacular.
A-Frames are known for cozy interiors, but also a lack of square footage – not so at this expertly renovated and expanded home. In keeping with the historic nature of the house, the open floor plan of the main room is a nautical dream and includes two bedrooms, full bath, and kitchen, while the second floor has been expanded to include a second-story veranda, bedroom, full bath, and a loft-style living area. The third floor loft, accessible by ladder, is simply an added bonus. The perfect place to nap, read, and take in the views.
Outside, a natural gas grill is accompanied by outdoor seating, a firetable, and jacuzzi. So whether your family and friends want to gather round the island for a late-night treat, indulge in a feast of local delicacies, or grill the perfectly cut steak, The A-Frame of Saugatuck is a special place to celebrate your loved ones through food.
The A-Frame is a truly extraordinary experience, providing the best views, amenities, and historical significance that will outshine anything else you might find in the area. Stay with us and revel in the Lux.
