Oakland County Lake living. I myself lived in Livonia for 23 years before I moved on a lake back in 2011. It’s a great lifestyle. I have had so many clients tell me that they had wished they had moved to the lake earlier. When you move onto a lake I believe you become more social. You tend to get to know your neighbors better. You tend to be more active and tend to be outdoors more. Family and friends want to come to your house and enjoy the lake lifestyle. A warm beautiful day is an invitation to get out on the lake. You tend to play hooky a little from work. I know people that work from home that sometimes work with their computer in the middle of the lake. They just float around in the sun working. Now that is a life style that anybody should love.
Everybody has their own wants in a lake, and what they want to do. This Southeastern Michigan lake website is here to help you understand about our local lakes.

Peninsula Lake in Highland MI is a small lake that is north of M-59 that you can see off Milford Road. It is less than a ten minute ride to downtown Milford and less than 30 minutes to Brighton.
I am guessing there are about 15 - 30 Peninsula Lake homes.
Peninsula Lake was named for a little peninsula that stuck out into the lake. Huron Valley schools is where the children would go to.
Peninsula waterfront homes range in size from 1200 square feet up to 2300 square feet. Most of the homes are on Peninsula Lake Drive and were built between 1950 to the late 1990's. I would not consider this lake to be a lake that will see the smaller houses torn down and large mega homes rebuilt in their place. The lake is just not big enough.
Peninsu la Lake home styles are cape cods, colonials, ranchs, and split level homes.
Peninsula Lake properties range from about 60 to about 88 square feet. There is one home that has 2.2 acres. But most of the lake homes are on what I would call regular sized lots.

My recommendation to you is to get a survey when you buy a lake home. IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT YOU DO SO. I have a cottage on White Lake and have seen a few battles between home owners over the lot lines. Twice I have seen where the owners were completely surprised that they did not own the land they were fighting over. If you have a staked survey you will not have any surprise.
If you are buying a waterfront property look up the property lines at the county or the community the home is in. I have seen lakefront homes sold that were not really Lake Front. They had a subdivision or community access in front of them. I have seen lot lines that angle. Where the owners thought they owned a perfect rectangle instead it was an rectangle at an angle.
So many home owners and lake home owners assume they know the lot lines. But many of them do not. It is important to get a staked survey so there are not property disputes with neighbors. On White Lake in White Lake Township there was a home sold years ago as a lakefront home. It became a law suit when the owners found out that the neighbors actually owned the lakefront in front of their home. They ended up letting the home go back to the bank.
I have seen several lake homes listed this year that were not actually Lake Front. They had a lake view but they did not actually own to the lake. It is up to you the buyer to do the research to make sure of that.
