Perched on five mostly wooded acres with beautiful backyard views, this inviting 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the perfect blend of comfort, privacy, and Northern Michigan charm. Inside, you’ll find a bright and spacious living room with a cozy wood-burning fireplace, generous walk-in closets, and an open kitchen and dining area that flows effortlessly to a covered porch—the perfect spot for morning coffee, birdwatching, or relaxing during a summer rain. A large pantry, main-floor laundry, and attached two-car garage add everyday convenience. Outside, the impressive 32' x 24' pole barn features a lean-to, dedicated electric service, an I-beam with trolley ready for a future hoist, and water readily available—ideal for hobbies, storage, or a workshop. There’s even a ready-to-go chicken coop! One of the property's most charming features is the adorable spring-fed fish pond, a completely self-sustaining little ecosystem filled with goldfish and frogs. Ideally located just minutes from the Village of Walloon Lake and a short drive to Petoskey, Boyne City, and area ski slopes, this exceptionally well-maintained property is truly move-in ready and offers the peaceful Up North lifestyle you’ve been looking for!
