A canopy of mature maple trees, perennial gardens, and a classic white picket fence welcome you to this beautifully preserved farmhouse, where timeless character and thoughtful updates come together on a spacious half-acre lot in the Village of Bear Lake. Step inside the enclosed front porch—a space that immediately slows the pace and invites you to linger with a morning cup of coffee or a good book before entering the heart of the home. Original wood floors, rich millwork, leaded-glass windows, stained-glass lighting, and a built-in bay window seat with hidden storage reflect the craftsmanship of another era, while fresh paint throughout most of the home and numerous recent updates make everyday living comfortable and move-in ready. The kitchen features a newer gas range, refrigerator, and pantry, opening to a formal dining room that's ready for holiday dinners, game nights, or everyday meals. Four bedrooms and two full baths provide flexibility for family, guests, or a dedicated home office. Outside, the spacious private backyard is surrounded by mature trees and established perennial gardens, creating a peaceful setting for relaxing on the large deck or entertaining friends throughout the seasons. Life here extends well beyond the property. Walk to Bear Lake's public beach, schools, Hopkins Park, pickleball and basketball courts, summer festivals, fireworks, the annual parade, and village events that make this community such a special place to call home. Crystal Mountain, downtown Manistee, and the beaches of Lake Michigan are all less than 20 min away. If you've been looking for a home with authentic character, modern updates, and a setting that feels both peaceful and connected, this farmhouse is ready to welcome its next owners.
