About This Home
Whether you're looking to purchase your first home, find a Northern Michigan getaway, or settle into a comfortable place for retirement, this 2-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom home offers easy main-floor living and shared access to Manistee Lake! Spend summer days boating, fishing, and enjoying the water, with a shared lake access point just down the road. A community dock has historically been installed and used by area residents; buyers to verify. For those who love the outdoors, adventure is right outside your front door, with approximately eight nearby ORV trails to explore by side-by-side, dirt bike, dual-sport bike, or snowmobile. The oversized garage provides plenty of room for vehicles and outdoor toys. Plus, you can walk to Manistee Lake Pizzeria for homemade pizza, cinnamon rolls, and donuts! Recent updates include a new water heater in 2026, central air, washer, dryer, and refrigerator in 2024, vinyl plank flooring throughout much of the home, and a furnace in 2019. New septic lines to the front tank with risers were also installed in 2024, and both tanks were pumped at that time. Located approximately 15 minutes from both Kalkaska and Mancelona and 30 minutes from Meijer in Acme, this is your opportunity to enjoy the Northern Michigan lake lifestyle—without breaking the bank!
