If your idea of home includes nearly 5 wooded acres, state land out your back door, and plenty of room to actually enjoy Northern Michigan—this one deserves a look. This 4-bedroom, 3-bath home sits on 4.76 acres and backs up to hundreds of acres of state land, giving you the kind of setting that’s getting harder and harder to find. And when you want to get on the water, Douglas Lake is just minutes away. Inside, the home brings plenty of Up North character with tongue-and-groove ceilings, a cozy pellet stove, Corian countertops, and a main-floor primary suite. Downstairs, the full basement gives you tons of extra storage along with plenty of possibilities for additional finished space. Step outside and you’ve got a large fenced backyard surrounded by woods, plus a durable metal roof overhead. But the real selling point might be everything beyond the property lines. Hiking, hunting, snowmobiling, trails, lakes—you’re positioned to take advantage of Northern Michigan in every season. You get the privacy and outdoor lifestyle without feeling completely off the map, with Mackinaw City, Cheboygan, and Petoskey all within driving distance. Whether you're looking for a full-time home, an Up North getaway, or simply more land and fewer neighbors, this is one you’ll want to see in person.
