Lake Michigan and beaches are less than 3 miles away, in the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. Absolutely one of the most private and peaceful 30-plus acre settings you will tour. Located in northern Benzie County, Platte Twp. Long private drive takes you through hardwoods. The 3 BR log-sided home sits in a delightful open area with occasional trees, including apple trees. Watch wildlife or star gaze from the front deck. Raise livestock, plant crops or establish a garden and still have room for outbuildings. Home appears to have “good bones” and includes wood floors and walls and an updated roof and furnace. Main level features a great room with log-beamed ceiling, brick chimney and tiled hearth for woodstove, kitchen with beamed ceiling, two bedrooms, full bath and laundry. Upstairs open loft could be used for additional sleeping or a den. A room for your canning or wine cellar awaits in the full basement with indoor and outdoor access. A breezeway conveniently connects the home to the 2-car garage, plus there’s a detached garage/workshop building. West side of property is hardwoods then planted pines. Some potential future timber value. Across the road to the East is state land. Down the road is the North Branch of the Platte River. Lots of potential here, with some elbow grease and appliance upgrades, to turn this rustic dwelling into a modern-day Up North retreat or year-round home. Being sold as-is.
