Lake Life starts here.
Welcome to 4663 Elm Drive in West Branch, MI—peaceful lakefront living on Channel Lake, with access to all-sports Lake George. Enjoy quiet mornings and sunrise views from the beautiful deck overlooking the water, complete with a retractable awning. A private dock is included, making it easy to hop in your kayak, fishing boat, or cruise over to Lake George via the connected culvert or the nearby DNR launch.
This well-maintained home offers a first-floor primary suite with en suite full bath, first-floor laundry, and an attached 2-car garage. All appliances stay—including a brand-new, never-used stove—and a tankless water heater keeps things efficient. A shed provides extra storage, and utility costs are impressively low.
Major updates add peace of mind: new deck (2023), natural gas service (2023), furnace (2024), water heater (2024), septic cleaned (Oct 2024), fresh paint (2024), insulated garage with new OSB and spring (2025), plus newer roof, well, water softener (owned not rented) and in-line under sink water filtration system in kitchen.
Tucked between I-75 exits 202 and 212, you’re just 10 minutes from town and a little over two hours from Metro Detroit—ideal as a full-time home or a summer lakefront getaway.
Note: Some virtually staged photos are included as an example of how it might look furnished. House is currently unfurnished.
