Description

Welcome to your own private Upper Peninsula escape! Built in 2025, this beautifully designed 2-bedroom, 2-bath home sits on approximately 33 acres at the end of a quiet, year-round gravel road in Baraga Township, offering exceptional privacy, comfort, and endless outdoor recreation. Designed with both beauty and efficiency in mind, the home features an inviting open-concept floor plan with the kitchen, dining, and living areas seamlessly connected. Crown molding throughout adds a touch of elegance, while the spacious living room is anchored by a stunning wood-burning fireplace with a natural stone-style façade. The home was thoughtfully positioned to maximize passive solar benefits, welcoming abundant sunshine during the winter months while helping keep the home cooler in the summer. The functional kitchen offers stylish dark wood cabinetry, generous storage, a dedicated coffee bar, and a sliding glass door leading to the backyard where a future deck could easily be added. Just off the kitchen is the convenient laundry and utility room with a second exterior entrance, making it easy to access the backyard or hang clothes on the line. Down the hallway, you'll find a full guest bathroom, a comfortable guest bedroom, and a spacious primary suite complete with a walk-in closet and private full bath. A new gravel driveway leads to the home, which is tucked well back from the road for added peace and privacy. Outside, the 33± acres have been meticulously maintained with groomed trails winding throughout the property, making it ideal for hiking, hunting, biking, snowshoeing, or snowmobiling right from your own backyard. Wildlife is abundant, and the property includes an elevated deer blind for hunting enthusiasts. Nature lovers will appreciate the incredible variety of trees, including quaking aspen, red maple, birch, tamarack, pine, ash, Douglas hawthorn, and cherry, along with over 100 apple trees. Lilacs, lilies, wild raspberries, and blackberries add seasonal beauty and charm throughout the landscape. Additional improvements include a fenced garden area with raised beds, a 12x18 steel-sided shed with an elevated wood floor, a Scout's pop-up shed, underground power extending from the meter with a camper hookup, and plenty of room to expand. Adding even more character, the property also features a historic log home protected by a metal roof and asphalt shingle siding. While it requires significant restoration, it presents a unique opportunity to preserve a piece of local history. Conveniently located just 10 miles from Baraga and approximately 25 minutes from Houghton, this remarkable property offers the perfect blend of modern living, unmatched privacy, and year-round outdoor adventure. Rarely does a property like this become available in Michigan's beautiful Upper Peninsula.
