Escape to your own private sanctuary, nestled atop a gentle rise with panoramic views of tranquil Chip Lake. This meticulously maintained home exudes charm and character at every turn. Step inside to discover a seamless blend of modern updates and timeless design. Vaulted ceilings and hickory floors create an inviting atmosphere, while the open floor plan ensures effortless transitions between living spaces. Indulge in the spa-like luxury of the primary bath, complete with heated tile floors and a low threshold shower. Delightful touches abound, from whimsical wooden ski trim to beer keg pendant lights above the kitchen island. The well-appointed kitchen boasts oak cabinetry and newer appliances, complemented by streams of natural light through double-pane Low-E windows. Entertain with ease, flowing from the interior to the sun porch finished in pine tongue and groove, then out to the spacious deck with innovative steel railings. Gather around the fire pit and savor unobstructed views of the lake and resident trumpet swans. Conveniently located just an hour from the Mackinac Bridge, and with the Seney Wildlife Refuge and an extensive snowmobile trail system nearby, this idyllic retreat (with short-term rental potential) offers the perfect blend of serenity and adventure.
