Located on W Straits Lake Road on quiet Ostrander Lake, this well-kept ranch home offers 2,635 square feet living space on both levels. Built in 2004, with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths. The main level features Brazilian cherry hardwood flooring, a comfortable layout, and a well-appointed kitchen with plenty of counter space, a functional island for gathering, and a pantry for storage, with appliances included. A very special space is the 3-season sunroom on the homes south side—lined with wall-to-wall windows—offering a great spot to relax with views of the water and surrounding woods. The mostly finished walkout lower level provides additional living space with durable hard surface flooring. Mechanical systems bring comfort with both hot water in-floor heat and forced air heat (both LP gas), along with central A/C for year-round comfort. Outside, the home sits on 5.77 acres with an impressive 750 feet of lake frontage and a west-facing exposure for end of day relaxing sunset views. A large, elevated covered deck on the lake side—with tongue-and-groove ceiling and recessed lighting—extends the living space outdoors, and a spacious detached two-car garage adds practical storage. The setting works well as either a primary residence or a second home, with easy access to nearby lakes including the Chain of Lakes, and a central location within the Hiawatha National Forest. From here, you’re within reach of Pictured Rocks National Lakeshore as well as the communities of Manistique, Munising, Marquette, and Escanaba, offering a good balance of privacy and convenience.
