Experience the best of Northern Michigan living at this truly one-of-a-kind property! Owned by the same family since the early 1960s and offered for sale for the first time, the original home is believed to date back to the mid-to-late 1800s and is surrounded by nearly 11 acres of beautiful, rolling green countryside. Here, you can have room for horses, let the dogs run, watch deer, fox and birds pass through the property, and enjoy peaceful evenings outdoors with remarkably few mosquitoes—all while being within walking distance of the Elk Lake boat launch and approximately three miles from Torch Lake. Spend your days boating, fishing, swimming, kayaking or exploring everything the surrounding lakes and communities have to offer, then return home to the privacy and quiet of your own country retreat. The home has been extensively remodeled within the past year, blending its original character with today’s comfort and efficiency. Major improvements include a new roof, siding, windows, exterior and interior doors, drywall, insulation, plumbing, electrical, fixtures, appliances, HVAC system, well and pressure tank. The original maple floors have been professionally restored throughout most of the home, with new hardwood added in the kitchen. The foundation was leveled and reinforced with engineered support jacks, a steel beam and additional reinforcement to the original stone foundation. The septic system was also serviced and inspected. Outside, you’ll find a new front deck and driveway, refreshed landscaping, a 40-foot shipping container for storage and full RV hookups with soft water, sewer connection and both 30- and 50-amp outlets. Whether you dream of a peaceful year-round home, hobby farm, recreational retreat or potential short-term rental subject to required approvals, this property offers country living, lake life and Up North adventure all in one incredible setting!
