Property Description
Experience refined waterfront living on the peaceful shores of Lake Malloy, where thoughtful design, modern efficiency, and breathtaking views come together in perfect harmony. Completely remodeled from top to bottom, this exceptional walkout ranch offers over 130 feet of pristine frontage and a rare gently sloping yard that leads seamlessly to the water's edge. Every inch of this home has been thoughtfully reimagined, creating a truly move-in-ready experience. The stunning new kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, custom cabinetry, and a bright open layout that flows effortlessly into the living area. Skylights fill the home with natural light, while a cozy fireplace creates the perfect gathering space for family and friends. The main-floor primary suite offers a private retreat complete with a beautifully updated bath and walk-in shower. New flooring, fixtures, paint, bathrooms, and finishes throughout reflect a level of care and design that is immediately apparent upon entering. Beyond its beauty, this home delivers something increasingly difficult to find--exceptional energy efficiency and remarkably affordable ownership costs. With a new HVAC system, central air, updated mechanicals, reverse osmosis system, newer well, and extensive improvements throughout, utility expenses average less than $200 per month, allowing you to enjoy lakefront living without the burden of excessive operating costs. The walkout lower level is designed for entertaining and relaxation, featuring recessed lighting, a custom-built bar, and direct access to extensive decking and patio spaces overlooking the lake. Whether hosting summer gatherings, enjoying morning coffee, or taking in spectacular sunsets, every space has been designed to embrace the waterfront lifestyle. Outside, the expansive yard offers a rare combination of usable lakefront space and easy water access. Known for its excellent fishing, peaceful atmosphere, and ideal pontoon boating, Lake Malloy remains one of Northern Michigan's hidden treasures. For buyers seeking a fully updated ranch home, low-maintenance ownership, outstanding energy efficiency, and an exceptional lakefront setting, this property represents a rare opportunity to have it all. Completely remodeled. Energy efficient. Move-in ready. Lakefront living redefined.
