Log cabin life is within your reach! This 2 bedroom (possible 3), 1 bath home with sauna is situated just 25 minutes from Marquette and Munising. Nestled among glowing maples and towering spruce, each room steps into four seasons natural beauty w/expansive views of the surrounding landscape. Start your day cupping warmth beside the sunrise of east facing windows and new butcher block countertops adorning the kitchen. Watch the day wind down through the trees from the balcony off the 2nd floor primary bedroom then retire to your favorite corner of the living room that revolves comfortably around an expansive fieldstone fireplace, beautiful hardwood floors and windows that put you alongside the arriving songbirds, falling leaves and flurry of snowflakes. Main floor back entry/porch leads you into a room that is currently being used as a mudroom, pantry and canning storage. This room has been used as an office or bedroom in the past. The large 2nd floor primary has plenty of space to be reconfigured into 2 bedrooms. The two-car detached garage has power and a handy workbench. Surrounding farms offer bountiful opportunities for fresh fare whether its food or flowers and the nearby Chatham COOP almost always negates the need for a trip into town. This home is literally around the corner from the breathtaking Laughing Whitefish falls and is a launch point for well known adventures to the Eben Ice Caves, Rock River Wilderness and Valley Spur trail system as well as lesser known forays to lakes and streams of the surrounding Hiawatha National and Escanaba State forests located just minutes from the front door. Hop on ORV Trail 8 just across the road and snowmobile to most everywhere in the UP. Play hard and come home to a roomy wood fired sauna heated by a Vokelsgang stove. Near the sauna you will find a garden area and the entrance to a .25 mile, maintained mountain bike/walking loop thru the acreage. The land has tappable maple trees(2 gallons was boiled down this spring). Also many culinary herbs: Thyme, lavender, oregano, sage, and chives among the flower beds. This home with its updates of fresh paint and carpet, newly treated wood siding, new windows and closed cell insulation in the attic and crawl space make this home move in ready.
