12926 Johnson Rd Kaleva, MI 49645

Everything needed in Michigan is located in Manistee County at this sprawling 151 +/- acre, Kaleva custom country estate, with 3,462' of private water frontage on Bear Creek. Begin your days fishing this cold-water stream that supports self-sustaining populations of brown and brook trout, in addition to migratory steelhead, Coho Salmon, and Chinook Salmon. The land also offers a diverse, rolling, whitetail habitat, keeping the herd close to home while giving any sportsmen invigorating fall hunts in the woods, along the creek. Call for turkey in the pasture or take your bird dog out for grouse. The fair chase opportunities are endless. Then come inside and enjoy more views in front of big windows and a fireplace. The home construction includes many well-planned energy efficient upgrades and the attention to detail can be noticed from the 9' ceilings down to the floor materials, whereas the basement and breezeway even includes in-floor radiant heat. The exterior utilizes Structural Insulated Panels and a copper roof, with the southward side of the home showcasing a Passive Solar Design, to name a few. An unfinished apartment over the garage could also be a Mother-in-Law suite or income property. The home boasts a 7,200 sq. ft. pole barn for equestrian and workshop use and has room for boat storage or snowmobile storage for nearby winter trail riding. Other activities in the area include but are not limited to: Lake Michigan, Tippy Dam, Crystal Mountain, Caberfae, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and a short commute to wineries and Traverse City. There is so much to do here! But, if you would rather just wind down on your private deck, off the master suite, and overlook the grounds as the sun goes down, then you can do that too.
