Welcome to 4174 N Dorr Road in Merritt! This property offers the perfect blend of recreation, privacy, and potential. Just steps away from public hunting land and hundreds of miles of ORV and snowmobile trails, its an outdoor enthusiasts dream. Conveniently located between Lake City and Houghton Lake, youll also enjoy easy access to fishing, boating, and water fun on local favorites such as Lake Missaukee, Houghton Lake, and many small lakes and streams. The home features 3 bedrooms, a large updated living room with warm wood beam accents, and a kitchen with plenty of cupboards and workspace. The entryway is uniquely designed with mechanicals and a garage door that can be opened to create a sheltered porch area-perfect for relaxing out of the weather. The star of the property is the large pole barn! Whether you strip it down for wide-open storage or finish the partitioned rooms for a workshop, home office, or additional living space, the possibilities are endless. The barn also includes a bathroom and a sliding door leading to a private deck. Half the land is open and half is wooded with beautiful hardwoods, giving you the best of both worlds. For heating, youll have the choice of a wood burner or a forced-air propane furnace. Please note: there are active oil wells located behind the property, with a driveway for access running along the north boundary line. This access does not interfere with day-to-day use of the home.
