Ives Rd Mason, MI 48854

What a gorgeous property! Located just south of Mason, with an easy commute to Lansing or Jackson, this exceptional property offers access to the amenities of mid-Michigan in a peaceful, rural setting. The approximately 13 acres provide the opportunity to build a home and outbuildings, with plenty of room remaining for horses, hunting, wildlife watching or other recreational activities. The owner has planted a diverse array of prairie grasses and wildflowers native to our area, which provides exceptional habitat for deer, turkey, pheasants, hawks, fox, wood ducks, and many more. The property has multiple build sites and great topography, and is bordered on the western edge by a year-round creek. It is highest near the road and gradually slopes downward as you approach the two-acre section of woods at the rear of the property. The sale is subject to a boundary survey and land division approval which will be paid for by the seller with an accepted offer. The property was perk tested in several locations and it has been approved for an engineered type septic system. A narrow strip of approximately 1.5 acres of CRP ground bordering the creek is planted in various prairie grasses, and cannot be altered until the property comes out of the CRP program in November 2018. This will not impact your ability to build, as the best building sites are located between the prairie strip and the road. The location is awesome. Country setting yet close to shopping and restaurants, the property is just 5 miles from US-127 and it is close to Downtown Lansing, MSU and Cooley Law School.
