Who doesn't love a log home in the country? Close to state land and ORV trails in the heart of Kalkaska County. Just 10 minutes to the village of Kalkaska and 30-ish minutes to Traverse City, you'll have six acres to play on and a 32x48 pole barn to store your toys! The home has wood floors on the main floor, new carpet in the upstairs (fall 2020) and two woodstoves for the coziest heat you'll ever experience. Current owners use the upstairs as the kids' bedroom but it could also double as a family room, rec room, office- you name it! There is huge potential in the unfinished space that was formerly the garage- just bring your imagination.
