Beautifully maintained home on 2½ lots in a fantastic Houghton Lake location, owned and lovingly cared for the past six years by a Master Gardener. The property has been thoughtfully landscaped with native Michigan perennials and plantings designed to return each year, creating a low-maintenance yard that attracts local birds and butterflies while minimizing large lawn areas. Features include fenced blackberry beds to protect from deer, along with mature apple and pear trees. Many garden beds are bordered with durable Pavestone retaining wall blocks, allowing easy redesign or expansion of the landscaping. This inviting 2-bedroom, 1-bath home offers approximately 1,164 sq. ft. with a spacious living room highlighted by a freestanding gas fireplace. Plus a 3-season room perfect for relaxing, and a flexible den/office area. The kitchen includes plenty of cabinetry and flows into the dining area for easy entertaining. A large breezeway/laundry area connects the home to the attached garage, which also features a 19x12 heated workshop with concrete floor -- ideal for hobbies, storage, or project space. Additional features include a water softener (helping reduce soap use, spotting, and buildup) and a natural gas grill that stays with the home. Located just minutes from Trestle Park, the public beach, ORV/snowmobile trail access, and beautiful Houghton Lake, this property offers the perfect blend of peaceful living and recreational convenience.
