Sunset Sanctuary 4191 Bay Shore Drive, Sturgeon Bay

Redeemed by Design: A Landscape Transformed: When we first stepped onto the property in 2000, it was overgrown and forgotten; the view of the water was barely visible. Over the next 25 years, we began a slow, intentional process of renewal. Inspired by coastal living, the design embraces openness and ease, blurring the line between inside and out in a way that feels both natural and refined. Nestled into a natural limestone pocket, the home is grounded by thoughtful stonework and warm, organic textures.

Parking on Bayshore Rd. on northbound side ONLY.
