Property Description
Discover the timeless charm and peaceful country lifestyle of this classic 1930s farmhouse, nestled among 20 heavily wooded acres and conveniently located between Lake City and McBain. Lovingly held by the same family for many years, this one-and-a-half-story home offers two bedrooms(the upstairs bedroom is very large), one full bath, and the nostalgic character of an old-fashioned farmhouse. The home could use a little TLC, creating a wonderful opportunity to make it your own while preserving the warmth, history, and charm that make it so special. Important improvements completed within the last five years include a new roof and a new four-inch well and a brand new hot water heater. Step onto the back deck to enjoy your morning coffee, quiet evenings, and the natural beauty surrounding you. The spacious backyard offers plenty of room for gardens, chicken coops, or other hobby-farming ideas, along with open space for children to play and explore. Apple trees in the backyard are known to draw deer close to the home, offering wonderful opportunities to watch wildlife right from your own yard. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the excellent hunting and exceptional privacy provided by the mixture of hardwoods and evergreens covering the heavily wooded acreage. With room to create trails or food plots, the property offers a true Northern Michigan retreat where you can explore, hunt, and enjoy the outdoors without leaving home. A detached garage provides valuable storage and makes an excellent space for a workshop, hobbies, equipment, or outdoor toys. Situated along a quiet paved road, this property offers the peace, privacy, and natural setting you have been searching for. Whether you envision a full-time residence, hobby farm, hunting retreat, or Up North getaway, this longtime family property is ready for its next owner to restore, personalize, and begin creating new memories.
