These properties are cozy, charming, and offer lovely mature landscaping. Further up on the market, two-story traditional homes become more common, along with trendy new Craftsman residences and new construction masterpieces built by top-notch developers. Many of the houses in the $300,000 to $500,000 range feature all the most in-demand fixtures and finishes that a buyer could want. These include hardwood floors, gas fireplaces, and sparkling chef's kitchens with granite countertops and spacious islands. Designer appliances and mood lighting add to the modern appeal of these bright homes, which were built to be as plush and comfortable as possible. Bonus features such as swimming pools, soaker tubs, and multi-car garages add an extra layer of luxury. Exteriors of Harbor Springs midmarket properties are varied, avoiding the bland uniformity of some suburban neighborhoods. Here, homes vary from brick to clapboard, cedar shake to stone veneer. Almost all of them showcase painstaking precision when it comes to curb appeal and facade maintenance.

Harbor Springs real estate can range up to or exceed the $12,000,000 price point. However, the more luxurious homes and estates in the city are tasteful and spacious but not excessively extravagant. Instead, they typically offer value through stunning European, American, and contemporary architectural styles, sprawling landscapes, privacy, and high-end craftsmanship. Building materials are of the highest quality, while interior finishes come in classic options as well as state-of-the-art ones.
