Looking for an affordable home with a million dollar view of the Portage, 3 bedrooms, a nice sized kitchen open to a large living room featuring a long view above downtown Hancock and the Portage waterway beyond? Well, this is one to consider. Extensive stairs leading from the street/parking level to the main level is worth the climb... something akin to ascending to a tree house. There is outside access to the cellar, too, which is just half way up the bluff and one story below the main (or upper) level and where the washer and dryer reside. The three bedrooms are a third flight up, two of which have a similar view as the living room below. This residence was most recently a registered rental and has been for about 15 years and could be again. Or, its ready to welcome the right person to call it their home. Did I mention the view? Come take a look.
