About This Home

7822 W Welch

"A step back in time".....Properties like this are few and far between! This classic cottage on Little Glen Lakes south shore has incredible charm inside and out, with board and batton siding, flagstone patio and walkways, lush perennial gardens, cut stone chimney and fire place, wide Ponderosa pine paneling, built-in book cases and cabinetry, a lovely screened in porch, vintage fixtures, and so much more! The first owners originally built what was a bunk house/cabin in 1938, added a summer kitchen, porch, and bathroom, followed by a two story west addition in 1947, to accommodate 3 bedroom, two bathrooms, family room, all in keeping with the original architectural style. Having changed hands as "recently" as 1968, the estate of the second owners have decided to offer this unique property to it's third successor stewards. Might this be your legacy property? Three waterfront parcels that total just under 6 acres are included with 181' of frontage with views of the Sleeping Bear Dunes, the westerly vacant lot is 82.5' by 1000 deep, the cottage and garage occupy the middle and eastern portion. Exceptional vintage furnishings are included, as well the dock, hoist, and pontoon boat. With immediate possession granted at closing, bring some provisions, the family and settle in for the second half of the summer and begin to write your Little Glen story.
