About This Home
As of August 2023A beautiful southwest view of all-sports Bear Lake can be enjoyed from this convenient location in the village of Bear Lake. Efficient two bedroom, one bath home is on a corner lot and just a short walk away from the public beach for swimming, paddling or paddleboarding. Formerly rented yearly, this potential gem is ready for your cosmetic updating. Interior features include marble tile flooring in the kitchen and a ceiling fan and track lighting in the living area. System improvements include a new forced air natural gas furnace in 2016 and an updated electrical panel. An additional 400 sq ft basement includes a laundry area and room for storage and a workbench. The yard is a blank canvas for your landscaping flair and includes a nice garden shed with double doors, perfect for storing the tools and toys. From here, it’s a leisurely stroll to downtown shops, the post office and historical museum, a breakfast/lunch café and the refurbished bar. It is an easy drive to all Manistee or Benzonia have to offer and also to Crystal Mountain for skiing, golfing, dining and relaxing in a spa. Best of all, you will be within driving minutes of Lake Michigan beaches and trails. Shown by appointment only.
