About This Home

Nestled in a tranquil, treehouse-like setting on 1.6 acres, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home in Truax Lake captures the essence of Up North living. This neighborhood enjoys a private access point to the Pere Marquette State Forest, with thousands of miles of scenic trails for hiking, biking, and year-round recreation. Step inside to vaulted ceilings and an open concept living space anchored by a floor-to-ceiling river stone fireplace. The spacious kitchen is well-appointed with solid wood cabinetry, natural stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, and picturesque views of the tree-lined backyard. The elevated deck spans the length of the home, overlooking the woodland canopy views. A cozy three seasons porch, wrapped in knotty pine, invites you to relax amidst the forested surroundings throughout the year. The primary bedroom features private deck access, walk-in closet and an ensuite bath with a dual vanity, jetted tub, and walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, powder room, and laundry room complete this floor - offering the ease of single-level living. The walk-out lower level provides a large recreation room, bar area, guest bedroom, full bathroom, and an additional 1,225 sq. ft. of storage space. A landscaped backyard with a flagstone path leads to a fire pit, perfect for gathering under the stars and enjoying the peaceful Northern Michigan nights.
