Rare Duck Lake package: SALE INCLUDES THREE PARCELS - 46 ft of sandy lake frontage, over 2 acres, and a massive 30 x 90 pole barn with heated workshop and finished recreation space — all with a move-in-ready lake cottage. Inside, this ranch home features an open floor plan with stunning water views from the main living areas, a cathedral ceiling in the living room, two bedrooms, a full bath, and a dedicated laundry room. Outside, the wraparound deck, fire pit, and dock are great for entertaining. A shed provides storage for canoes or paddle boards, and a Generac generator is on standby if needed. A standout feature of this property is the impressive 30 x 90 pole barn with three distinct areas and a steel roof that matches the lake house. The first section of the pole barn has two doors, one of which is a 14-foot slider. The second section is insulated and currently used as a heated workshop. The third section is completely finished with drywall, carpet, and abundant lighting, making it perfect for guest overflow, a game room, and rainy lake days. All of this is situated on over two acres with a beautiful wooded area and park like setting. There is plenty of parking for friends and family. Not only will you enjoy the best of lake living, but you'll also be just minutes from downtown Crystal, where you can enjoy a movie at the vintage Crystal Theatre, go skating at Rainbow Gardens Roller Rink, or experience the excitement of Crystal Motor Speedway. Duck Lake is conveniently located about an hour from Grand Rapids, Lansing, and Saginaw, and approximately two hours from the Detroit area, making it an ideal lakefront escape that's never too far from home. This property is located at the end of a one-way private road, offering a peaceful setting with added privacy and limited traffic. Interested buyers must be accompanied by a licensed real estate agent. Some photos have been virtually staged. Lot lines in pictures are estimated.
