Property Description
Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath home, completely remodeled in 2021 and ready for its next chapter. At 728 square feet, this cozy gem proves that good things really do come in small packages — the ideal starter home or the ultimate up-north getaway cottage. Step outside and adventure is at your doorstep. You're just 10 minutes from the crystal-clear waters of Torch Lake and 20 minutes from the stunning Chain of Lakes. Golfers and skiers will love being only 30 minutes from championship courses and the slopes at Schuss Mountain, while Traverse City, Elk Rapids, Bellaire, and Kalkaska are all within easy reach for shopping, dining, and small-town charm. Back at home, unwind in the large, fenced-in backyard with a private fence — perfect for pets, gatherings, or simply relaxing after a day on the water or trail. The detached one-car garage offers plenty of room to store all your toys, from bikes to your off-road rig. Whether you're chasing sunsets on the lake, carving down the mountain, or exploring backroads on your next off-road adventure, this cozy cottage is the perfect basecamp for the northern Michigan lifestyle you've been dreaming of.
