About This Home

As of December 2023

Are you looking for a fixer upper with some acerage out in the country but yet centrally located? This charming little farm house on 5 acres is it! Located in Alden just minutes to Alden, Kalkaska, Torch Lake and Traverse City is a quick 20 minutes. The kitchen is a new addition with vaulted ceilings and a functional layout. It has been tastefully done with granite countertops and LVP flooring. Stainless steel appliances, plenty of storage including the “pan wall” by the back door(clever idea)! The rest of the house is in need of a makeover. The homeowners are currently working on a few things before the sale, new drywall, ceiling repair, finishing trim, fresh paint, a rail for the stairway and other various things. The two bedrooms are nonconforming as they do not have closets. The second bedroom is the loft area. This little home has A LOT of potential, it is a stick built house, great location, 5 acres and gorgeous views. Pole barn is 32 x 24 and set back from the house. There are two garden sheds(8x10 & 8x6) that are both in great condition. Private setting on a quiet road, the gravel part/road is only 1/3 of a mile from the main road. *The homeowners have been doing significant home improvements with finished drywall around the home including enclosing the staircase and fresh paint. Updated photos to come with finished work.
