    What's special

    Lake viewsOverlooking fife lakeExpansive deckRemarkable view
    Built in 1886 overlooking Fife Lake, this historic triplex offers lake views, income potential, and the opportunity to create something special. The expansive deck enjoys year-round views of Fife Lake, a popular Northern Michigan all-sports lake known for boating, fishing, and year-round recreation. It is the kind of setting that keeps visitors coming back season after season. Currently configured as three rental units, the property offers flexibility for investors, seasonal rental operators, or buyers looking to restore a piece of local history. Originally constructed as a mercantile building before evolving into a residence and later a triplex, the property has adapted to changing needs for nearly 140 years and is ready for its next chapter. With current rental rates below market and all three units offering seasonal rental potential, there are multiple paths to increasing value. Whether your goal is short-term rentals, long-term income, or a thoughtful restoration, the opportunity is clear. At less than $133,000 per unit, opportunities like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find. This is not a turnkey property, but for buyers willing to roll up their sleeves, it offers a remarkable view, easy access to the lake, and the chance to create significant value through vision, patience, and effort. The neighboring property may also be available. Ask for details.
