Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath ranch-style home nestled in a scenic and recreationally rich region of northern Michigan. Set on over 24 acres of private, heavily wooded land, this up-north homestead offers the perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. An attached 2+ car garage and a spacious 24’ x 40’ pole barn provide ample storage for vehicles, toys, and equipment. The expansive yard is surrounded by mature hardwoods and mixed timber, creating a peaceful environment for wildlife observation, hunting, and non-motorized trail building. The East Branch of the Boyne River meanders through the back of the property, enhancing its natural beauty. Inside, the home offers 1,695 square feet of finished living space, featuring a large family room, utility room, and pantry. Additional bonus areas include a workshop/mudroom and a dedicated storage room. For added comfort, a wood stove serves as a reliable secondary heat source. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to hundreds of acres of State Land and regional trails, including access to the North Country Trail and the vast northern Lower Michigan wilderness. The Thumb Lake (Lake Louise) public boat launch is less than three miles away, and the Thumb Lake public park, with its 1,600-foot sandy beach, picnic pavilions, and swim area, is just a short drive beyond. Conveniently located between Highway 131 and I-75, this property is only 10 minutes from Boyne Mountain Resort and an additional five minutes to downtown Boyne City. Petoskey and Gaylord are both less than 25 minutes away, making this an ideal location for work or leisure. Experience all that northern Michigan has to offer, from outdoor adventures and ski resorts to golf, dining, shopping, and community events, while enjoying the tranquility of a quiet rural setting.
