409 S Morrison Rd West Branch, MI 48661
About This Lot
Located on a paved blacktop road just outside West Branch, this approximately 15-acre property offers a beautiful elevated building site with sweeping views of surrounding tillable fields and stunning western sunsets. The tillable acreage provides income potential, and for a smaller parcel, the deer sign is remarkable. Scrapes and deer beds are all over the parcel (see pics), making it a prime spot for outdoor enthusiasts.
A previous home on the property burned down, but much of the infrastructure remains. There is an approximately 15x35-foot basement and a cement slab/foundation that was the footprint of a 4,800 sq. ft. house. One room still stands and could either be removed or incorporated into future plans. The property features a large septic field and tank, both still believed to be serviceable, and a well over 120' deep, also believed to be in working condition. Parcel 2 includes a small septic field and tank, along with a shallow well; the condition is unknown, but it could be a nice bonus.
A metal pole building offers ample storage or workspace. The property is also conveniently located near the Rifle River and Rifle River Recreation Area, as well as nearby state land areas with extensive trails for snowmobile and ATV riding. A rare opportunity to build your dream home on a scenic, income-producing parcel with existing utilities and abundant outdoor appeal.
