About This Home
If you have been waiting for a log home that offers both character and usable acreage without sacrificing convenience, this 16.13± acre Midland County property deserves your attention. As you enter the long paved driveway, you are guided through mature trees that create a sense of privacy and anticipation as the home comes into view. The setting immediately establishes the feeling of space and seclusion while still being within close proximity to Midland and Mt. Pleasant. The full wraparound porch completes the first impression, offering a welcoming place to relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Inside, the craftsmanship of the home is immediately apparent. Natural log construction, exposed beams and abundant windows work together to create a warm, inviting environment filled with natural light. The open living and dining area provides both space and functionality, allowing the home to feel comfortable for everyday living while also accommodating gatherings with ease. Just beyond, the kitchen offers generous counter space, ample cabinetry and a layout that keeps everything within reach while maintaining connection to the main living areas. The main level primary suite offers a comfortable retreat, featuring dual sinks, a walk-in shower and a spacious walk-in closet. Continuing down the hall, two additional bedrooms are well-sized and conveniently located near a full bathroom highlighted by a classic clawfoot tub that complements the timeless character of the home. At the end of the hallway, a quiet seating or library area creates an inviting space to relax or unwind. Above the main living area, the loft overlooks the open space below and provides flexibility for additional living area, workspace, or entertaining, while maintaining connection to the home's open feel. Moving to the lower level, the finished space continues to add versatility with an additional bedroom and connecting bonus room that can serve a variety of uses depending on your needs. The lower level also includes laundry, utility space, and direct access to the attached two-car garage, helping support both functionality and convenience. Comfort throughout the year is supported by multiple heating sources including in-floor heat, wood burner, forced air heat, and central air conditioning. City water service and leaf guard gutters further contribute to ease of ownership and long-term practicality. Stepping outside, the property continues to offer opportunity and flexibility. Maintained trails allow easy navigation throughout the acreage, whether for recreation, exploring the property, or enjoying the natural setting. The land provides space for wildlife activity and includes an established clubhouse-style hunting blind positioned on the property. In addition, the 30x40 pole barn with power, concrete floor, and loft storage provides valuable space for equipment, tools, recreational vehicles, or workshop use while complementing the overall usability of the land. The property also adjoins hundreds of acres associated with the Chippewa Nature Center, a non-hunting area that helps provide additional privacy and a protected natural backdrop. Located within a short drive of both Midland and Mt. Pleasant, the property offers a balance of privacy and accessibility that can be difficult to achieve. The combination of quality log construction, functional improvements, and manageable acreage creates a property suited for full-time living, recreational use, or long-term enjoyment.
