Listing Details

Privacy is at a premium on this 2.65-acre parcel, with a perfect year-round home and a coveted 273 feet of south-facing Paradise Lake frontage. Used by the current owners as a cottage and vacation rental and being offered completely "turnkey with all furnishings, accessories and fixtures, the opportunities here are plentiful for year-round or seasonal living for individuals who want their own dock for that Northern Michigan Waterfront experience/investment but don't want to share a front lawn with a bunch of other properties in a row; 8970 Paradise Trail has this both at the home and at the dock. Inside this redone cottage is an open floor plan with a dramatic great room featuring tongue-and-groove pine vaulted ceilings, giving it that cottage aesthetic, with 2 bedrooms, a bathroom, and laundry all on one floor.  The garage and workshop area offers a total of 833 square feet for those who like to spend time on projects or tinkering and find more relaxation working in the garage than sitting inside the home. Outside, there is complete privacy in the yard, and the longer driveway shrouds you from what is already a quiet road. The meandering walk to your own private dock shows how big the site is and gives you that up north experience with a tree-lined path under the sun or stars to an oasis at the shoreline, with the closest dock hundreds of feet away. Sites like this are becoming a thing of the past as pressure and division of waterfront parcels continue to increase as more people attempt to beat the heat in the south and start living the freshwater good life that Northern Michigan provides. This place is the whole package and priced to sell, with showings available only on the days it is not occupied by short-term tenants. Call today for a personal tour.
