Ready to escape city life & urban sprawl? This non-replicable trophy property sits on 20 scenic acres adjacent to the Manistee National Forest with breathtaking frontage along the pristine Sanborn Creek, a DNR Class 1 trout stream where salmon & steelhead migrate upstream each season. Imagine watching the crystal clear water ripple & fish pass by from the comfort of your kitchen table & better yet, you can catch a 5 star dinner right from your backyard! For anglers, hunters, nature lovers, and those seeking true tranquility, this property offers something increasingly rare: a protected sanctuary where you can disconnect from urban life and reconnect with the outdoors. Directly adjoining protected federal land and national forest, the property offers a rare sense of security and permanence--no future development, just miles of preserved wilderness as your backyard. The home offers a warm, welcoming atmosphere with large windows that capture peaceful views of the surrounding landscaping. Outside, the land has been thoughtfully maintained with perfectly groomed hiking, snowshoe and cross-country ski trails winding through the property. Multiple outbuildings provide excellent space for workshops, equipment storage, creative studios, or recreational use. A 30-amp camper hookup allows guests to bring their RV and enjoy the property with you. A large fenced yard with safety gates provides peace of mind for children and pets, with controlled access leading toward the dock and creek. Deliveries are accessible year-round, utilities are low, and recent updates include a new ductless split HVAC system, new well, flooring updates, and a recently pumped and inspected septic tank. A year round home with the perfect view for the remote worker with high speed internet, a vacation home or even a vacation rental that could easily sleep 8 people for a memorable getaway! Deed restrictions ensure that the integrity of the property is maintained as natural as possible. Addition was built in 2002 All this and just 40 minutes to gorgeous Ludington Beach!
