Nestled on a picturesque 13.5-acre wooded lot, this nearly 1,709 square foot, 4-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home offers the perfect blend of comfort and country living. The open floor plan creates a spacious, welcoming atmosphere, ideal for both daily living and entertaining. The primary suite serves as a private retreat with a large en suite bathroom and a generous walk-in closet. Throughout the home, rustic tongue-and-groove ceilings add warmth, while durable vinyl flooring provide both style and practicality. The electric fireplace in the living area provides a cozy ambiance, perfect for unwinding after a long day. The laundry room is designed for convenience, adding functionality to the home’s thoughtful layout. Whether you’re a family or simply enjoy having room to spread out, this property offers space to live and grow. Step outside and find a large pole barn set up for storage and entertainment. Explore the beautiful acreage, that offers plenty of space for gardening, hiking, or creating your own private hunting retreat. The wooded landscape is private and secluded, while the property’s location near the county line makes it easy to access all that both Benzie and Leelanau counties have to offer. In Benzie County, enjoy the clear waters of Crystal Lake, local ATV trails for outdoor adventures, or year-round activities at Crystal Mountain Resort. Head into Leelanau County for breathtaking views and hiking at Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore or a day of exploring charming towns like Glen Arbor and Suttons Bay. This home offers the best of both worlds: a peaceful, private retreat with easy access to Northern Michigan’s incredible outdoor lifestyle.
