Wood stoveFamily room additionEquipped for full-time living

This 40-acre, mostly wooded parcel is conveniently located on a paved road between Mancelona and Bellaire, close to some of northern Michigan’s best recreation. Whether you envision a northern getaway, a camping retreat, or a future homesite, the property offers multiple potential building sites and flexibility for a variety of uses. Because Custer Township has no zoning restrictions, this is a great opportunity to bring your plans and imagination to life. The property includes a 10’ x 16’ storage building and an approximately 400-square-foot tiny home equipped for full-time living, complete with a wood stove, combination washer/dryer, family room addition, well, and septic. Shanty Creek Resort, with five golf courses and more than 40 ski runs, is less than 15 minutes away and Antrim County’s notable Chain-of-Lakes is nearby as well. Make this property yours and imagine the possibilities.
