3506 Union Lake RD

Your Own Dock on Lower Straits Lake.

Coffee on the deck, sunsets over Lower Straits Lake, and nothing to fix first. 3 bedrooms, 3 FULL baths, and 2,500+ move-in ready square feet facing the water.

The main level is open and built around the view. The kitchen, dining area and great room share one sightline to the lake, and two extra-large doorwalls bring in natural light and step straight out to the deck. The kitchen has a center island, a breakfast bar and plenty of counter space, so whoever is cooking stays part of the conversation. A fireplace in the great room makes the lake view just as good in January as it is in July.

Upstairs, the oversized primary suite has a wall of windows that catches both the sunrise and the full due-west sunset, so you wake up to the lake and end the day watching the sun drop behind it. It also has its own fireplace, a large walk-in closet and generous storage. 3 full baths, including one with a jetted tub, give you and guests room to spread out. A full-height 3rd floor is ready to finish whenever you want more space, whether that is an office, a gym or a bonus room.

Outside, more than 40 feet of direct frontage, a private dock, a deck and a fire pit put lake life right outside the door. Lower Straits is an all-sports lake, so boating, tubing, fishing and swimming are part of every summer, and the deck is where most evenings end. When the weather turns, the fire pit keeps the yard in use well into fall. The 2.5-car garage has room for the cars plus the kayaks, bikes and off-season gear.

Commerce Township puts you minutes from shopping and dining along Haggerty Road and Union Lake Road, the trails at Proud Lake Recreation Area, and quick access to M-5 and I-96 for the commute. Everyday errands are close, so living on the lake does not mean a long drive for the basics.

The best way to judge this home is to stand in the great room and look out at the water. Schedule a private showing with your agent.
