    Charming 3-Bedroom Ranch in Sugar Springs — $189,900 5453 Darby Way | Sugar Springs, MI Welcome home to this well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1-bath ranch tucked into the desirable Sugar Springs community on a 0.31-acre lot with POA property directly behind, offering extra privacy and no rear neighbors. Just minutes from both Lake Lancelot and Lake Lancer, this location is perfect for anyone who loves lake life, boating, and the peaceful north-woods setting Sugar Springs is known for. Interior Highlights This 1,014 sq ft home offers a bright, open living area featuring durable vinyl plank flooring throughout — easy to maintain and built to last. The cozy living room centers around an electric fireplace with a custom wood mantel, and flows into a functional dining area and kitchen with oak cabinetry, a tiled stone backsplash, and ample counter space. A dedicated laundry area with side-by-side GE washer/dryer and a water softener/filtration system adds everyday convenience. The home is comfortably cooled by a newer A/C unit, so you can enjoy Michigan summers worry-free. Outdoor Living The covered front porch is the perfect spot to unwind, while the spacious, beautifully manicured backyard is a true retreat — mature birch trees, a stone fire pit, garden shed, and plenty of open lawn create an ideal setting for entertaining, relaxing, or simply enjoying the wooded surroundings. A limestone gravel driveway offers plenty of parking, and the property backs to POA land for added seclusion. Community Amenities Sugar Springs POA offers residents access to a community pool, clubhouse, beach access, and boat launch — plus close proximity to Lake Lancelot and Lake Lancer for swimming, fishing, and boating. A fantastic opportunity to own an affordable, move-in-ready home in a true four-season recreational community.
