TBD Co Rd Nmu/station Rd, Sands Township, MI 49841
About this home
This outstanding property offers the privacy only a large acreage parcel can provide, but at the same time is convenient to Marquette, Gwinn, the International Airport and Upper Michigan's vast ORV Trail System connecting routes that immerse you fully into the nature that the Upper Peninsula is famous for. All of the landscapes that stretch across our wild lands each have their own distinct and beautiful features. Here you will find a combination of towering trees featuring Pine, Oak, Poplar, White Birch, Spruce, Maple and more. Once used as Farmland you will find wide stretches of open areas where livestock once roamed and grazed. These areas with long viewing distances are perfect for hunting game with many impressive Whitetail Bucks inhabiting the area. Most woodland creatures found in our forests call this place home or cross its path. The varied terrain of the property is a Foragers Heaven. Connecting with nature and enjoying the health benefits of fresh free food can be very rewarding. Depending on the time of year you can find and gather an impressive buffet of plants and fruits such as Yarrow, Plantain, Acorns, Mullen, Wood Sorrel, Blue Spruce Buds, White Pine Needles, Fiddle Head Ferns, refreshing Wintergreen, June Berries, Black Cherries, Huckleberries, Red Clover, Wild Strawberries, Canadian Dwarf Cornus Berries, Mushrooms, all Pine Saps and of course Plentiful Blueberries among others. Each of which boasts tremendous anti-oxidant qualities. The open and sunny areas would also be perfect for growing your own crops or starting a Tree Farm. A beautiful freshwater pond is a highlight of the land, full of fresh cool spring water and surrounded by Birches, Oak, Maple and Evergreens. A path created by Wild Animals leads them to the water for a fresh drink. A small building on the property can be used for storage, as a shed or the ultimate heated hunting blind. Some might even find it fun to spend the night there enjoying a campfire among the stars and dark night skies with very little light pollution for viewing Northern Lights. A Natural Gas Pipeline and the Train Track use an easement to cross the property and the areas around it offer another excellent hunting area. The gas line brings Electricity almost to the property.
