Property Description

Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare. Held by the same family since the 1920s, this remarkable 53 acre Northern Michigan homestead offers a legacy property experience. Bordering thousands of acres of state land on two sides, the setting provides endless opportunities for recreation, exploration, hunting, fishing, hiking, and enjoying the natural beauty that surrounds it. The land itself is truly special, featuring mature hardwood forests, open meadows, fruit trees, berries, fenced garden areas, a spring-fed pond, and an extensive trail system, including a historic logging railroad grade that winds through the property. Most extraordinary of all, the headwaters of the Boyne River emerge directly from the ground here, creating a crystal-clear water feature unlike anything else in the region. The updated 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath home combines modern comfort with homestead charm. Since 2014, extensive improvements have been completed, including updated windows, siding, a new roof in 2025, and a beautifully renovated kitchen in 2026. The home offers year-round comfort with central air conditioning, propane heat, and a central wood-fired furnace. It is also generator-ready, and the portable generator will remain. A John Deere tractor with mower, loader, and tiller and new snowblower are included. Additional improvements include a 30' x 40' pole barn with concrete floors and electricity, along with a woodshed that also offers potential for a chicken coop. This year's garden is planted so you can enjoy the harvest and continue the property's self-sufficient lifestyle. Whether you're seeking a year-round residence, recreational retreat, hobby farm, hunting property, or a place to create your own family legacy, this one-of-a-kind offering delivers. Conveniently located between Boyne City, Petoskey, and Gaylord, you'll enjoy easy access to Northern Michigan's best communities while feeling worlds away from it all.
