A spacious house built in 2007 to a very high standard of construction and finish that offers every modern convenience in a very tranquil rural setting on large (78 acres) wooded plot of land in Manistee County. The open living, dining and kitchen area is the center of the house and is exceptionally well-lit with a cathedral ceiling and large windows with a propane fireplace for cozy Winter evenings. Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts or as a high-end hunting lodge. The house has three bedrooms plus a ''bonus room'' above the garage that is finished and heated that can be used as a bunkroom or storage. The basement is also finished with forced air and underfloor heating. The property is surrounded on two sides (north and west) by National Forest and Tippy Dam Pond is 200 yards from the northern property line across public land. The property has abundant deer, grouse, turkey, bears, coyotes, bobcats, and other birds and animals. In addition to excellent bird hunting, there are five food plots for deer, three with permanent blinds (one and two-story wooden tower blinds and an Orion raised blind). There is an additional wooden ground blind and several older blinds that could be renovated. Habitat improvements for deer in 2024 included creating or replanting five food plots, creating four water holes and hinge cutting trees to improve bedding areas. The property was surveyed, and the boundaries staked in 2024. There is an extensive system of well-maintained trails that allow access to the property for hunting and walking. Although the owners have decided to sell, they have continued to maintain the trails and replanted the two larger food plots with oats and buckwheat in May 2025 to provide turn-key hunting for the new owners. In addition to hunting, the property is ideal for the fisherman. There are two trout stream close by and Red Bridge boat launch is 10 minutes away giving access to both Tippy Dam Pond (for fish and wildfowl) and the Hodenpyl trophy trout section of the Manistee River. Access to the Manistee for salmon and steelhead below Tippy Dam is also a few minutes away. The property includes a garden shed (with concrete floor and power) that could also be used as a deer-blind and a garden enclosed by a deer-proof fence. The garden has water and there is an in-ground irrigation system in the lawn around the house. The yard is enclosed by a dog fence that includes the decks to the west and north of the house. The fence also encloses a concrete picnic area and fire pit with covered wood storage. The kitchen has granite counter tops and stainless-steel appliances. Heating and cooking are by propane and there is a propane generator capable that automatically switches on to power the entire house in the event of a power outage. The house has a two-car garage and there are two large 40x60 pole barns both with power, electric overhead doors. One pole barn has a bathroom and an overhead propane heater.
