About This Home

8278 Devil's Elbow

Attractive Riverfront Living on Michigan's Inland Waterway. Welcome to this beautifully maintained, year-round riverfront home offering 100 feet of frontage along the scenic Crooked River-part of Michigan's famed Inland Waterway connecting Crooked, Burt, and Mullet Lakes all the way to Lake Huron. Whether you're an avid boater, angler, or simply seeking a peaceful waterfront lifestyle, this property delivers an exceptional Up North experience. Enjoy a quick 10-minute boat ride to Burt Lake, one of Michigan's premier fishing destinations, known for walleye, muskie, pike, perch, and both rainbow and brown trout. The property is thoughtfully equipped for life on the water, featuring a covered 16X28 boat well and 60 feet of seawall, providing ample docking and protection. The inviting 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has been extensively updated and lovingly cared for. Improvements include a new roof and siding, a fully remodeled custom kitchen with stainless steel appliances, rich hickory flooring, and a rebuilt stone wood-burning fireplace that anchors the main living space with warmth and character. Designed for comfort and convenience, the home offers main floor living with a spacious primary suite and laundry. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms and a beautifully updated bathroom. A standout feature is the large finished bunk room above the garage-complete with it's own half bath-perfect for guests, kids, or additional entertaining space. Outdoor living is just as impressive, with a large front deck and retractable awning-ideal for relaxing, dining, or taking in the excitement of the annual marathon outboard boat race as it passes by. The circular driveway offers abundant parking and even the potential to add a pickleball court. Located in a four-season recreational paradise, this property provides easy access to snowmobiling, skiing, and no fewer than 17 nearby golf courses, making it the perfect year-round getaway or full-time residence.
