Discover the possibilities with this historic 5-bedroom, 2-bath farmhouse set on 2.56 picturesque acres in Clarkston. With over 2,200 square feet of living space, this property combines nostalgic charm, original character, and endless potential. Classic craftsmanship runs throughout, while practical updates—including a first-floor laundry and a new roof—provide added convenience and peace of mind. Inside, you’ll find original hardwood floors, tall ceilings, original craftmanship, spacious rooms filled with natural light, and a layout rich with history. The property also includes 2 outbuildings, adding rustic charm and functional storage. The property itself is a true gem—2.56 acres of mature trees, open land, and privacy. The walkout basement combines the original Michigan basement with a full walkout addition, creating a unique blend of old and new. The location adds even more value: just minutes from downtown Clarkston, you’ll enjoy top-rated dining, boutique shopping, and small-town charm. Plus, you’re close to Pine Knob Music Theatre, a premier destination for concerts and events, as well as skiing, lakes, trails, and year-round outdoor recreation. Easy access to I-75 makes commuting simple while still offering the tranquility of country living. This is more than just a home—it’s a rare opportunity to invest in land, history, and location in one of Oakland County’s most sought-after communities.
