Just outside the coastal town of Frankfort—with its sandy beaches, iconic pier, and small-town charm—you’ll find the peace and privacy of your own 10-acre wooded retreat. Built as the builder’s own home, quality shows in every detail of this 4-bedroom, 3-bath residence, designed to last and meticulously maintained ever since. Main-floor living features a hickory kitchen with stainless appliances, beech hardwood floors, a vaulted great room with a stone-hearth gas stove, and a sunroom overlooking the trees. The back deck offers a quiet perch above the woods, while an attached 2-car garage and 22x26 workshop provide plenty of space for projects and storage. Future-ready spaces offer room to grow: the walkout lower level is plumbed for a 3/4 bath with shower, toilet, and sink, framed to easily add bedrooms or a rec room, and includes plumbing for a small kitchen or utility sink—perfect for guest quarters or an in-law suite. Above the garage, plumbing is also roughed in for a full bath, opening the door to a spacious 12’x24’ studio apartment, game room, or private retreat, complete with an egress window for a legal bedroom. Beyond the property, Crystal Lake and Crystal Mountain offer year-round recreation, while the Betsie Valley Trail, Platte and Betsie Rivers, M-22, and Sleeping Bear Dunes put Northern Michigan’s best adventures right at your doorstep. This is a rare blend of coastal-town convenience, wooded privacy, and future potential.
