About the Listing 78000000060936 - 78000000453623

Buyer's financing failed due to no fault of the house (after a satisfactory inspection and appraisal) so this house is ready for its new owner!! Discover the perfect blend of country living and modern updates with this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse on 5 scenic acres conveniently located on M-55 between Lake City and Houghton Lake. Designed for easy one-level living, this well-maintained home offers a spacious open-concept floor plan with a large family room and dining area ideal for gatherings, entertaining, or comfortable everyday living. The updated kitchen features newer appliances, ample cabinet space, and a walk-in pantry for exceptional storage and functionality. Recent improvements provide added value and peace of mind, including a new roof (2025), replacement windows, and a new well pump. A pellet stove creates a cozy atmosphere while offering an efficient supplemental heat source during Northern Michigan winters. Step outside to enjoy the peaceful setting from two outdoor decks overlooking beautifully established landscaping. The property features a grape arbor, garden space, mature lilac bushes, snowball bushes, forsythia, honeysuckle, and seasonal blooms that create a picturesque country backdrop.
