Country living on a private 27 acres near the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore Park. Historically unique home was once a Platte Twp. train & stage depot. This 19th century, one-story farmhouse shows off its custom oak woodwork & cupboards, milled from trees on the land. Unlike most homes of the era, there’s a large bathroom w/ walk-in shower & laundry, and a small sitting room would work nicely as an office or for crafts. Added later, the basement has large workbenches, sink & storage; and there’s also a one-car garage. ALL major appliances listed are included. Vinyl siding means less ext. care. Put hobbies, horses, toys or gear in your 36x24 pole barn. Live in a beautiful hollow surrounded by mature hardwoods and explore the big hills & woods for elusive morels. Follow a path to a branch of the Platte River for fishing. This is a fantastic recreational area near lakes, river & golf, with an easy drive to Empire, Honor, Beulah & Benzonia & a little further to Crystal Mtn. for skiing/spa/activities.
