This is your rare opportunity to own a truly custom log home on acreage with frontage on the Cedar River. The 70 yr old red pine logs were sourced from Michigan's Upper Peninsula, each one hand scribed and expertly laid by Pleasant Ridge Log Homes. The details in the woodwork and design of the home are incredible at every turn. This home has been well maintained and cared for by one owner since it's construction. This 2,110 sf home has 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, vaulted ceilings, ample lighting, beautiful exposed beams, a natural woodburning stove, formal and informal dining areas, handcrafted log staircases, ample closets, covered porch, large back deck and full basement. This property delivers great wildlife value for its size as it has frontage on the red cedar river which is fishable and creates a funnel that steers deer and other wildlife through the property. Sit on the front porch or back deck and see a variety of wildlife. Some excellent hunting stand sites already established in successful locations are located on the property. Very private and secluded but conveniently close to Downtown Fowlerville, Howell and Tanger Outlets. Easy access in minutes to I-96 which quickly gets you to other major cities. Too many features to list them all, call today to schedule a showing to see this amazing property in person!
