Beautiful waterfront living at 131 Bryan J Dr in Denton Township, MI.
This fully renovated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath ranch sits just four homes in from Houghton Lake, Michigan’s largest inland lake. Positioned near the end of the canal, the property offers a rare advantage: canal-front living with unobstructed views out to the full lake.
Inside, the home is move-in ready with major updates completed within the last five years, including the roof, windows, interior, garage, and more. The kitchen features elegant stone counters, while the lakeside four-season room makes a strong impression with its warm wood ceiling, exposed brick, and beautiful water views.
The home also comes furnished, negotiable with the sale, making it easy to turn the key and start enjoying lake life right away.
Outside, you’ll find a covered deck with low-maintenance Trex decking, a private dock, fire pit, patio, and a hot tub ready for cool summer nights. The drive-through 2.5-stall garage is ideal for storing boats, snowmobiles, ATVs, and other lakefront toys.
Located on the coveted 22,000-acre Houghton Lake, this property offers year-round recreation, from boating, fishing, and sandbars in the summer to Tip-Up Town, snowmobiling, and winter events when the lake freezes.
A strong opportunity to own a renovated waterfront ranch with comfort, views, updates, and true four-season lake lifestyle.
