Set on approximately 2.66 acres framed by mature trees, this property blends restored living spaces, historic barn, and the character of a Michigan farmstead. Connected to the Peters family since 1919, this setting offers privacy, room to spread out, and a connection to the area's agricultural heritage.

An impressive historic barn anchors the property, complemented by a garage and several additional outbuildings. Their scale and character offer exciting possibilities for storage, hobbies, workshop space, and creative pursuits. Equestrian, agricultural, or event uses would be subject to applicable approvals and historic preservation requirements. Mature trees and open lawn create a peaceful backdrop for gardening, gathering, and enjoying the changing seasons. Direct access to the bike path and nature trail makes outdoor recreation part of everyday life, with a trail connection toward the cider mill.

Beautifully restored homes, distinctive outbuildings, mature grounds, and a rich local history make Historic Peters Farm an extraordinary place to call home.
