Discover the charm of this exceptional lakefront property nestled on Big Perch Lake in Ely Township. This hidden gem offers a rare blend of privacy, expansive acreage, and stunning waterfront on a pristine, spring-fed lake, complemented by a private spring-fed pond—all at an unbeatable price. The cabin is well-maintained and equipped with modern comforts, including electricity, a drilled well, septic system, and laundry facilities, making it suitable for year-round living. Set on a generous 5.5-acre lot, the building site is perched on a picturesque ridge, providing breathtaking views of both Perch Lake to the northeast and the serene pond to the southwest. Towering pines frame the property, creating a soothing ambiance on breezy days. Big Perch Lake boasts crystal-clear waters teeming with diverse fish species, and the property features 80 feet of hard sand bottom shoreline. The unique pie-shaped parcel includes a walking path leading from the cabin to the water's edge, along with a road that allows easy access for transporting gear. Enhancing the outdoor experience, the property comes with a storage shed, a cozy fire pit, and a dock, along with a cleared gathering area perfect for enjoying the stunning surroundings. While the setting is tranquil and rural, it's conveniently located just a short drive on paved County roads, only 15 minutes from Ishpeming, MI. Recent updates include a septic system pumped in 2024, a one-year-old furnace, and new appliances—including a washer and dryer still in their original packaging—ensuring a seamless transition into your new home. This property is a rare opportunity for those seeking an idyllic lakeside retreat.
