Bordered by thousands of acres of Manistee National Forest land, this prime 1.03-acre lot between Wellston and Manistee is a rare blank canvas just 7 miles from Tippy Dam and 20 minutes from Lake Michigan. The site previously featured a 1,992 sq. ft. home (2 bed/1.5 bath) lost to fire; all debris has been removed, leaving the footprint cleared and ready to build. The property is a sportsman's dream, featuring a fully fenced yard with a rear gate for immediate entry to endless public land for hunting and exploration. Storage is already handled with a massive 30x52 stick-built garage including 10x10 drive-through doors on each end, a 12x12 outbuilding equipped with electric, and an additional storage shed. After a day of world-class fishing or hiking, you can relax by the on-site fire pit and enjoy the surrounding wildlife. With the land prepped and high-value outbuildings already in place, this is the perfect head start for your Northern Michigan getaway!
