Escape to the serenity of northern Michigan with this charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath home nestled on a wooded 1-acre parcel in the desirable White Birch Estates. Though not directly on the water, the property includes deeded access to the lake—just a short walk away—offering all the perks of waterfront living without the premium price - AND you have your own private lot for a boat dock! Inside, you'll find knotty pine ceilings that add warmth and character, a main floor primary bedroom, and a Jack-and-Jill bathroom connecting the two upstairs bedrooms. One of the upstairs bedrooms features a private balcony and walk-in closet. The spacious kitchen includes a pantry, and there's a dedicated laundry room for added convenience. Outside, a 30x40 pole barn provides ample space for storing boats, ATVs, snowmobiles, or other toys. A Generac generator ensures peace of mind year-round, and the newer roof adds long-term value. Whether you're looking for a weekend cottage or a year-round retreat, this property offers the perfect blend of privacy, recreation, and comfort. With easy access to trails, lakes, and all the natural beauty Ogemaw County has to offer, it's an ideal escape for out-of-town buyers seeking their slice of "Up North" life. 30x40 pole barn w/ 220 power, 3rd lot available across street for additional $13,000!
