A bicyclist’s dream with miles and miles of scenic roadways out your front door. This very private five-acre Old Mission Peninsula estate offers studio space, peace, privacy, and effortless Northern Michigan living, completely tucked away and unseen from the road. The home features low-maintenance fiber cement siding and five carefree wooded acres that require little attention unless you choose to make them your playground. Archie Park is within walking distance for swimming, fishing, and picnics on the bay. Local Yokel’s Farm Market is just over the hill, with wineries, world-class beaches, hiking trails, and all the beauty of Old Mission just minutes away. Thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and guests, three of the four bedrooms offer en-suite privacy, including a complete mother-in-law suite ideal for extended family, a private office, writing or art studio, or separate guest quarters. The primary suite features its own sitting area with laundry conveniently nearby, while a private lower-level walkout suite creates yet another comfortable retreat. The kitchen is crafted for the discerning cook, and the home’s expanded design by noted architect Keith Brown beautifully blends timeless character with modern function. Decades of lovingly tended gardens surround the property. To top it all off a very creative ¾-finished cedar-shake barn with electricity and prepped for water adds even more possibilities for the funniest, studio space, entertaining, or additional guest accommodations. A rare find on the Old Mission Peninsula, where nature, privacy, flexibility, and Peninsula charm come together in one exceptional setting.
