Welcome home to the heart of Benzie County!! Overlooking the Platte River valley where magnificent sunsets are observed, is this cute and cozy, updated 2-bedroom/1-bathroom home. A metal roof and natural gas furnace were updated in 2012, central AC in 2015, and newer stainless appliances are included in the sale. The home sits on 3 acres with a detached 2-car garage that was re-built in 2014 AND a 24x28 metal pole barn. There is plenty of room for the outdoor toys and a tool bench.
