This is a 2 1/2 acre, park-like oasis property surrounded by woods, a creek and the Boardman River, four miles due south from downtown Traverse City. The two bedroom, one bath cabin-like structure is priced so low because it needs cosmetic interior remodeling, although it is structurally intact including the single layer roof, which does not leak and all of the doors and windows have full secure integrity. There’s nothing unsafe regarding the structure, it just needs to look much nicer... floors, paint, some trim etc. It’s perfect to extend out and create a bigger home with a garage or it would be a spectacular finished little cabin for personal use, or an ideal Airbnb opportunity being located so central to all the area has to offer. There is a new smart meter and a functioning electrical, however, some interior electrical work still needs to be done. There’s a brand new well installed in the fall of 2021 with a newly installed pump and pressure tank.. New pex lines provide hot and cold water for the bathroom but plumbing not fully completed for kitchen sink or laundry area although materials to finish will be left for new owners. New on-demand natural gas water heater installed and an excellent forced air natural gas furnace. Charter high-speed internet and cable is available or fiber optic cable. Close to the mall and shopping, central to all of the area’s amenities but surrounded by woods, Jack’s Creek and the Boardman river, right next to the nature Conservancy and the Sabin pond area trails. Wildlife abounds in the surrounding wetlands and the defunct railroad track gives you nice privacy and a safe separation from one of the best maintained roads in town. Everything amazing about Traverse City is nearby but you get to have a secluded paradise without the traffic or the noise. The driveway is a leased easement from the railroad company for a nominal annual fee. The railroad provides a blue tag that allows financing. Currently, there are two portable buildings on the property that will be left if new owner wants them, they can be moved or relocated accordingly. All appliances (fridge, washer, dryer, gas stove) included. The property is currently housing an animal sanctuary and very crowded with materials being dispersed to new residence, so viewing is strictly by appointment ONLY and while the seller is HIGHLY motivated, only serious inquiries will be considered. Land contracts or rent to own are not options.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
