It's the good life! Country lifestyle with quality construction smartly situated on a 5 acre parcel which can be split into two 2.5 acre parcels. Located far enough away from the hustle & bustle yet offers an easy 25 minute commute via US-31 to Traverse City or the National Lakeshore. This property is both functional and fun! If "24 on center 2x6" speaks to you, then you know where I'm going with this. 5/8" drywall and 26-55 R values, poured foundation, Kolbe, marble, 36" door, 40 year shingles, LG & Bosch. Now for the fun! A garden and a shooting range, a fire pit built for a Northern Lights party, state land and trails and seasonal roads just up the dirt road which boarders this property. And an oversized gravel drive (W29' x L125') with 2 turn-arounds is trailer and equipment ready. Game room, guest space, 52' deck. There are also design details built into this custom built home for potential future lifestyle choices. For example, the walkout lower level is finished, wired and plumbed to easily be converted into a mother-in-law suite or apartment. Three additional finished rooms in lower level can accommodate uses for an in-home office, in-home gym, media room, craft/hobby room or storage. Enough already. We've found what you've been looking for .. it's the good life!
