Custom built home on 58 acres on the banks of the Manistique River. The location is exceptional, quiet and remote yet easily accessible on a year around county maintained road. Built in 2003 by a top local builder with beauty and function in mind. The owner requested many items to be "overbuilt" for durability. The home is frame construction with 6" walls, a 12/12 roof pitch and log siding that has been meticulously maintained and looks great. The spacious deck that is partially covered will allow you to enjoy the views and nature that is all around you. The main level features great views from the large windows and has tongue and groove aspen on the walls and ceiling and has tile floors throughout. The fireplace will keep you warm and enhance the view. The open kitchen and dining area, master suite with spacious bath and laundry room finish out the main level. The room is spacious and grand with the vaulted ceiling. A one bedroom loft with full bath completes the upper levels. A full finished walkout basement with one bedroom area and the mechanical room will give you great overflow space for guests and parties. Loads of parking in the large graveled area between the house and the steel frame garage. This home is off grid but is fully powered by a 20 kilowatt Onan diesel generator, with solar and battery storage. There are also 2 500 gallon propane tanks to support the items that are run on propane. A short drive to Seney National Wildlife Refuge, Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore, Tahquamenon Falls, Manistique Lakes, and many other great recreational highpoints of the Upper Peninsula. $349,900.
