224 Riverside Rd, Marquette, MI 49855

This home sits up in towering pines near the banks of the Chocolay River just East of the city of Marquette. Completely updated exterior with newer siding and shutters and steel roof, as well as treated wood back stair down from the upper bedroom level. the two car detached garage also has a steel roof and siding. The nearly half acre lot reaches back to a bayou of the Chocolay River with lots of wildlife and birds and spring peepers, and with some effort one could get kayak or canoe access to the main river. Two river launch sites are just minutes away as well. The Heritage walking and hiking trail runs across the street and annually the UP200 Sled Dog race passes by. The original section of the home was a historic cabin built in the 40s that was featured in a state wide magazine "Lure" as a UP destination. The 1997 addition to the back added a huge cathedral ceiling living area with beautiful solid wood floors, great natural light and entertaining space. A beautiful wood burning fireplace is located in the original cabin living room which has been used recently as the master bedroom. The full bathroom was just remodeled this month with new flooring, tub and fixtures. Great starter home with potential of main floor living as well.
