There may not be a property left like this in all of Milford! Just minutes from downtown Milford and backing to Proud Lake Recreation Area, this rare buy-and-build opportunity is a nature lover's paradise. Perfect for hobby farmers, outdoor enthusiasts, aspiring agriculturists, and equestrians. Owned by the same family for decades, this stunning property once hosted a home and barn, over a dozen head of cattle, and still has enough property for snowmobiling and 4-wheeling! While the home is uninhabitable (no access allowed until after accepted offer) the property provides several high and dry footprints for a sizable home with a walkout basement. This stunning property is shaped like a “7â€, narrower and flat at the road, opening wide and gorgeous in the back. There are utilities present, and it spans an impressive 11 acres of stunning rolling landscape with many walnut, hickory, and there may still be some fruit trees around. Enjoy miles of recreational walking, biking, hiking, and horseback riding trails in Proud Lake Rec Area, accessible from the far north end of the property. Note: There is no survey available. The property is under surveillance. Be courteous. You must have an appointment to walk the property. Do not attempt to access the home or barn for your own safety. Served by Huron Valley schools with Johnson Elementary, Muir Middle, and Milford High. More info in docs!
