Perfect spot for your new small home or getaway! This little 1.88 acre gem is just 11 minutes or 6 miles from town on a quiet, paved road. It’s secluded yet close to all that Big Rapids has to offer. High and dry building site, surrounded/sheltered from the road by rows of pines. Enjoy your new home on top of the hill at this wonderful, fern-filled property, complete with a leveled, stone pad with wood perimeter for an approximately 12’ x 16’ shed or storage building. From the various deciduous trees near the crest of the hill, the ground slopes down about 25 ft. to the Muskegon River. Note that the ground by the river is wet most of the year, but removing even the fallen trees and brush will likely open up a beautiful view from the high ground. Preserve some of Mother Nature's wetland and enjoy the coolness of the towering pines and cedars near the river, or, erect a small gazebo near the water as a quiet getaway spot. Consumers Energy utilities are readily available near the site, and a perk test was passed and is on file with the county.
