8247 Mowatt Rd North Branch, MI 48461

Outdoor Getaway in northern Lapeer County. You like getting away from it all? A place where you can listen to the wind in the treetops. Where the whitetail deer and wild turkey roam. Listen close you may hear the call of the barred owl, maybe see a passing bald eagle. A place where you can relax, unwind, and enjoy the seclusion of nature. An outdoor paradise. Follow the winding drive a half mile or so back through the forest to a Amish made, rustic hunting cabin deep in the woods. There is a hand pump well and an outhouse. You'll need to bring the generator back to this off-grid oasis. Closest power is about a quarter mile away through the woods. The rustic cabin is perched atop a hardwood ridge, overlooking a 35-acre lake with only two other landowners. The lake is home to pike, bass, catfish, bluegill and an occasional walleye or two. Its also a seasonal home to lots of waterfowl for those of you who enjoy mallards, wood ducks, and Canadian geese.
The property is made up of 3 parcels. Two of the parcels are adjoining, the third connects to the other 2 by a recorded easement. The land is a combination of high ground, low ground, wetland areas, and lots of lake frontage. It is located well back in the middle of the section but touches 2 different roads. Currently, it is accessed by one gated drive back to the cabin.
The forest is a combination of oaks, maples, poplars, hickory and many varieties of softwood trees. There are plenty of these trees that will take a couple of you to reach around. Some of them are 40 feet to the first branch. Some gorgeous old growth timber.
The wildlife using the property include deer, turkey, small game, ducks, geese, and a whole host of furbearing critters. If you enjoy birding, the forest is simply alive with the calls of many species.
Properties of this size and character aren't easy to locate within a couple hours of Metro Detroit.

Aerial, address, and acreage size are estimated and should be verified by the buyer or their agents. Driveway is gated and locked. Must have an appointment and an agent with you to be on property.
