Description
This incredible 46-acre property truly has it all: a beautiful setting, multiple outbuildings, and endless possibilities just minutes from Houghton Lake.
The main home offers approximately 2,000± sq. ft. with an open floor plan, 2 bedrooms, and 1.5 baths. A large enclosed porch finished in tongue-and-groove pine harvested from the property features picture windows overlooking the pond and a cozy wood stove for year-round enjoyment. A covered porch with rough-sawn lumber ceiling provides the perfect outdoor living space for relaxing or entertaining.
There is a windmill located at the pond that operates a well to help keep the pond full of water in the dry months of the year. The windmill is not currently in operation, but all of the components are there, and it could easily be refurbished.
A 30x40 pole barn with two large overhead doors sits next to a 20x30 heated bunkhouse that can sleep up to 16 guests.
Supplements: The bunkhouse has a door wall leading to the pond and offers privacy for visitors. Both buildings are plumbed and ready for wood boiler heat. Additional outbuildings include a horse barn with a tall roof for camper or boat storage, a 16x24 single-car detached garage, a chicken coop, a small stable previously used for mini horses, and an 8x12 storage shed. With a little TLC, this could be the perfect homestead or up-north retreat. The land features diverse timber, abundant wildlifedeer, turkey, and bearand roughly 25 fruit-bearing apple, pear, and plum trees. There are great spots for food plots, and just to the south lies a large section of state land for even more outdoor recreation. As a bonus, the property includes an active cell tower providing steady annual income of approximately $3,900 annually and is fully transferable to the new owner. Located just minutes from Houghton Lake and about four miles from the trailhead, this rare property combines privacy, recreation, and income potential in one perfect northern Michigan setting.
