LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION! If you have been searching for a true northern Michigan retreat that offers seclusion, privacy, and convenience, this rare Ogemaw County property deserves your attention. Nestled on 60 acres of high ground with rolling terrain and surrounded by the breathtaking Huron National Forest, this setting provides the perfect blend of recreation, wildlife and country living. The 3-bed, 3-bath ranch-style home sits peacefully among mature woods with beautiful views of the natural landscape and the abundant wildlife that calls this area home. One of the 3 bathrooms is in the primary bedroom. This property offers the rare opportunity to enjoy the peace and quiet of a remote setting while still being just a short drive to West Branch, I-75, and everyday amenities. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the established elevated rifle blinds positioned along well-traveled ridge tops overlooking valleys below. The property hunts much larger than 60 acres thanks to the surrounding Huron National Forest and the incredible big woods habitat that borders it. The area is well known for its strong deer and turkey populations due to the mix of mature timber, cover and nearby agricultural ground. A massive Morton building barn adds tremendous value with heat, electricity, and plenty of space for equipment, storage, hobbies, or a workshop. A 32x42 sq ft portion of the morton building is heated. A large outdoor wood burner provides heat for the barn, home, and domestic water, offering efficiency and self-sufficient country living. Located near trailheads and endless recreational opportunities, this property is ideal for hunting, hiking, ORV riding, and enjoying everything northern Michigan has to offer. Properties with this level of privacy, acreage, improvements and location are extremely hard to find. Experience the slower pace of rural living without sacrificing accessibility - this is a true northern Michigan gem.
