Listing Details

COMPLETELY RENOVATED in 2024 & move-in ready, this 2 bedroom 1.5 bath cottage enjoys just over 5 acres of land & is conveniently located within minutes of Antrim County’s famed Chain-of-lakes. With a backdrop of towering trees, the acreage offers privacy or a place to hunt. The renovation involved taking the home to the studs so practically everything is new, including the siding, Anderson windows, sliding door, closet doors, premium vinyl plank flooring, tasteful woodwork, insulation & more. The beautifully updated kitchen is appointed with quartz counters, Kraftmaid cabinetry, new appliances, and new fixtures & lighting. It is open to the living room that offers abundant natural light & a Lopi pellet stove insert for warmth on the coldest of days. A mini-split heat pump was added so the house can also be cooled on warm days or warmed until you need the pellet stove. In addition, there is electric heat in each room for maximum temperature control. The full bath was completely updated with ceramic tile walls, new flooring, tub, toilet & vanity. An attached garage allows you to get your vehicle out of the weather to unpack your things. If you don’t need the attached garage, go ahead & finish it into living space. It includes a 1/2 bath & the washer & dryer hook ups so it could make a great 3rd bedroom, study, or game room. It also provides access to the back yard where you might add a patio or deck for another serene outdoor space to relax. The property includes a 24’ x 30’ pole building for plenty of storage space. It features a full length covered porch, aka the Chili Pepper Lounge, where you can enjoy picnics & entertain rain or shine. All this is conveniently located within 15 minutes of Torch Lake, Lake Bellaire, Grass River Natural Area, Glacial Hills Pathway & Natural Area, Shanty Creek Resort, 7 golf courses, the villages of Bellaire & Alden, & less than an hour from year-round recreation available in Northwest Michigan. Make this yours & move in by summer!
