Set on 10 acres of hardwoods, this 3-bedroom, 3-bath home sits on a hilltop with a paved driveway and a quiet, tucked-away feel just off a county-maintained road. Inside, you’ll find two beautiful rock ledge fireplaces and a fully finished walkout basement that adds great extra living space. Central air and a whole-house generator keep things comfortable year-round. The back deck is built for entertaining—perfect for grilling, relaxing, and taking in sunsets or a sky full of stars. Need space for toys or projects? You’ve got it with two full garages and an 18x40 pole barn with two 12x14 doors. Located between Grayling and Kalkaska, close to state land, trails, and the Manistee River—this is a great spot for snowmobiling, hunting, or just getting outdoors. Well cared for and ready for its next chapter.
