Property Description
Are you looking for a great place to start your new business, or maybe retire and have yourself a hobby farm, then you need to check this place out. Current owners are Amish and they built a new home 40' x 48' with a 60' x 100' pole barn connected to the home, currently used for building sheds, carports, mini cabins and more. The work area has a nice office area with a loft for storage. All this was built in 2023 with a new 5" well and septic system too. Electricity is available at the street. The property has an abundance of wildlife for hunting, close to many lakes, rivers, and the snowmobile trails as well. 4,300+ acres of state land in the immediate area, Crystal mountain winter skiing and summer golf, Lake Michigan is also just a short drive away. Sellers are in the process of splitting 10 acres off the Northeast corner of the property leaving the sale being 30 acres, still plenty of land for a new owner to enjoy. Call and schedule a private showing of this beautiful layout.
