Craftsman Country Estate on 40 Acres! The first impression of driving into the property is "Wow"! Setting foot in the house is just as impressive. This home was meticulously designed and constructed with incredible detail. One of the first rooms encountered is the kitchen. The kitchen has custom cherry cabinets, tile counters with tile backsplash, a Lacanche oven/range, island with sink, and a Finnish woodstove/oven. The living room, dining room, and sitting area are very inviting and great for entertaining! The living room has a 20' ceiling with a full wall of windows to take advantage of all of the natural light in all seasons and a grandiose fireplace with mantle. Also on the main floor is a 4 season room and a half bathroom with laundry. The curved stairway accessing the second floor is absolutely gorgeous. The second floor has the primary suite overlooking the living room and has views to the outside. The bathroom has a full walk in, tiled shower. The rest of the floor has 2 bedrooms, reading room/den, and a full bathroom. The living area is so impressive and has so many details to include the hardwood floors with inlaid cherry accents throughout and wood tongue and groove walls. Other features of the home include a wood furnace, Wandels water treatment system, newer Rheem furnace, elevator for wood from the basement to the main floor, dual function heat/air conditioning for the second floor. The house has a wrap around porch with a portion of the porch being screened in. The 28'x28' garage was built in 2015 is equipped with power, has attic storage and a custom wood door! Next to the home is the sauna. The sauna has an impressive steam room, has a walk in tiled shower, and a sitting area. The steam room is heated by a wood stove with the building overall being heated by propane hot water. Also next to the house is a wood shed that has curved headers where the wood is accessed. The grounds of the property have numerous apple and cherry trees, approximately 2 miles of well developed trails to include culverts and packed mine rock where necessary, a babbling brook, hardwoods, and so much wildlife! The setting of the house and property is so serene with all of it being in Portage Township and not that far from the City of Houghton! NOTICE: All information believed accurate but not warranted.
