Welcome to your own private slice of Up North paradise on beautiful Pearl Lake in Lake Ann. Nestled on over 5 wooded acres with an impressive 250 feet of private mostly sandy water frontage, this peaceful waterfront retreat offers the perfect blend of privacy, nature, and recreation. The home features 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and over 1,900 finished square feet, with an additional unfinished lower level offering extra dry and clean storage space. Large windows and the incredible screened-in porch capture breathtaking lake views and unforgettable sunsets year-round. Follow the winding driveway through the trees to a setting that feels worlds away. Whether you’re enjoying morning coffee overlooking the water, evenings around the fire, or watching loons, bald eagles, osprey, and sandhill cranes nearby, this property embodies true Northern Michigan living. Pearl Lake is a spring-fed 302-acre all-sports lake known for its natural beauty and serene surroundings. The protected conservancy land along the west side of the lake helps preserve the peaceful atmosphere and abundant wildlife that make this area so special. Additional highlights include a large pole barn with cement floors and oversized overhead doors, spacious deck areas, a dedicated firepit area, and room to entertain family and friends both indoors and out. A rare opportunity to own acreage, privacy, and pristine waterfront all in one extraordinary Up North setting.
