A Unique Saugatuck Offering — On the Hill When location matters and you want to enjoy all that Saugatuck has to offer, look no further. Located in the area affectionately known as "On the Hill," this charming home is just a hop, skip and a jump from downtown, the waterfront, shops, restaurants, marinas, the high school and so much of what makes Saugatuck special. There is a wonderful history to this home. Three generations of the same family have lived here and cared for this property through the years. For decades, the home has been used as two living spaces, offering flexibility for family, guests or rental use. Most recently, both sides have been used as short-term rentals. Some remodeling has been completed through the years, creating a mix of stepping back to a slower, simpler time while still offering the conveniences of everyday living. The long-standing two-living-space arrangement gives the new owner many possibilities — continue using the home as two living spaces, bring it together as one home, live in one side and use the other as a monthly rental, or create a space that works beautifully for family and guests. The offering price leaves room for the next family to bring their own vision to this special property and create the home and living space they have been dreaming of. Both living spaces offer covered porches, providing wonderful spots to sit back and enjoy the setting. The full backyard offers room to relax, garden, gather and enjoy the outdoors, while the jumbo storage shed provides plenty of space for storage, tools, bikes and all the extras that come with enjoying a Saugatuck property. This is a must-see home and property for anyone wanting a Saugatuck address, a walkable location and the flexibility to make a property their own. Walk to town, the waterfront, shops, restaurants, marinas, the high school and countless community activities — then come home to a property with a history of being loved and cared for by three generations.

An icon of Saugatuck, Peterson Mill was designed by retired engineer R.E. "Pete" Peterson and opened circa 1965 as a gristmill and gift shop, grinding cornmeal and wheat flour on site. Today, the landmark property pairs the 819-SF, 3-level mill with a 1,564-SF principal residence and attached 2-car garage.<br><br>The principal building offers 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths and laundry on the main level; upstairs, an open kitchen, dining and living level features wood ceilings, exposed beams, fireplace, water views and a long screened porch.<br><br>The mill adds a main-level bedroom and bath, upper sleeping/flex space, half bath, eat-in kitchen, living room, laundry, storage and deck. Together: 2,383 SF across 2 buildings, with 2 kitchens and 2 laundry areas. Millponds, channels, the landmark waterwheel, waterside patios and footbridges complete this extraordinary setting near downtown Saugatuck. Peterson chose this site along Moore's Creek, between Holland Street and the Kalamazoo River, after purchasing the land around 1960. A retired U.S. Steel executive and engineer, he personally conceived the clapboard mill and its water-turned wheel. During its commercial years, visitors could purchase cornmeal and wheat flour ground on the premises. Although the business closed in the 1970s, Peterson Mill and its reflection in the millpond continued to become a favorite subject of Saugatuck-area artists and photographers.<br><br>The building to the rear incorporates architectural features from Saugatuck's R. C. Brittain house, adding another layer to the property's provenance. Ornamental exterior brackets, substantial turned stair details, paneled doors and beautifully aged millwork carry that collected character throughout the principal building.<br><br>Its main level opens through a dedicated foyer adjoining the attached two-car garage. Two bedrooms are arranged on this floor, including a generous primary suite with a window-lined bath featuring a soaking tub and separate shower. The second bedroom is currently well suited to office or studio use. A half bath, laundry room and additional utility space complete the level.<br><br>Upstairs, the principal building opens into a warm, expansive gathering floor beneath wood-paneled ceilings and exposed structural beams. The kitchen centers on a large island with seating and flows naturally into the dining and living areas. A fireplace anchors the room, while broad windows frame the lawn, water and surrounding tree canopy. The approximately 27-foot screened porch extends the entertaining space and offers an elevated place to enjoy the setting in changing weather.<br><br>The mill unfolds vertically across three intimate levels. The first provides a waterside bedroom, full bath with tiled shower, laundry room and dedicated storage. The second level contains an eat-in kitchen, living room and half bath, surrounded by warm wood walls, ceilings and barn-style doors. At the top, a wood-wrapped sleeping or flex room, with exposed rafters, windows and access toward the elevated deck, creates a memorable private retreat.<br><br>Outside, millponds and channels shape nearly every view. Patios sit directly at the water's edge, footbridges cross the spillway and channels, and mature trees frame open lawns and the mill's unmistakable wheel and stone base. The result is part residence, part architectural landmark and entirely Saugatuck, a property whose setting, history and versatility cannot be replicated.
