Tranquility��seclusion…serenity. Imagine: a beautiful Cape Cod style home sitting on over 1,000 feet of private frontage of The Paint River, backed up by almost 35 acres of U. P. woodlands (34.25 acres in qualified forest management program) adjacent to additional State of Michigan lands. Whether you’re looking for your forever home, a personal retreat second to none or an incredible Airbnb investment property, this piece of “God’s Country” is unique. As you meander down the private road you’ll be greeted by breathtaking views of the river valley looking across at thousands of acres of undeveloped forestlands. Launch your water adventures down the stairs leading to the river’s edge where canoeing, kayaking and fishing of this wilderness watercourse will leave you wanting more. End your day watching the sunset across the valley rocking on the front porch or gathered around the fire-ring listening to the wind through the pines and the gentle whisper of the water rolling by. Inside you’ll find a main floor bedroom and bath just off the open concept kitchen/dining/living area with vaulted ceiling and a stone, gas fueled fireplace that offers ambiance as well as heat. The open concept loft area features its own full bath and over-sized room for many guests that could be partitioned off for more private quarters if desired. The finished basement boasts the family game room with knotty pine surrounding the card table, pool table and media area. This home comes completely furnished with newer appliances, living room and bedroom furniture as well as the family room furnishings. Outside, you’ll love the fully screened riverside gazebo for that morning cup of coffee as well as an older shed behind the house…perfect for use a a garden shed or convert it to a sauna! Aside from the attached insulated & heated garage there’s added storage in the 24x30 pole building with concrete floor & power as well as a 24x28 carport…perfect for all your adventure toy storage. You’ll never want to leave once you’re here. Seller is selling as is with all furnishings and accoutrements.
