Make lifelong memories at your picturesque up north cabin on the water! This charming and turn-key 3 bed 2.5 bath half-log home sits on 300' of the east branch of the AuSable river and is bordered on two sides by thousands of acres of state forest. This provides all the peacefulness you desire and surrounds you with wildlife, trails to explore all four seasons, and of course Blue Ribbon trout fishing! Main level features a cozy living area with pellet stove and kitchen and dining room with slider overlooking the river. All kitchen appliances are brand new so you're provided the comfort and convenience of home in a completely relaxed setting. 3 generously sized bedrooms and 2 bathrooms are also on the main floor, with the primary including an en suite bath. Downstairs highlights include a large open living space with wood stove, screened in porch, and walk out to paver patio that is wired and ready for a hot tub. A half bath is plumbed and has room to be made into a 3rd full, and a potential 4th bedroom is drywalled and just needs mud, paint, and flooring. Also on the lower level: a brand new boiler system with smart thermostats, new water softener, new upgraded electrical panel, and brand new washer and dryer. Outside sits an oversized 2 stall garage with lean-to, a level buildable area perfect for a pole building addition or camper space for guests, and shed for storing your yard tools, and covered wood storage. A whole-home Generac unit was just installed giving you peace of mind during the cold season. Located near Forbush Corner, Bright and Glory Lakes, and endless ORV/ATV trails. This property needs nothing...just show up and let your worries disappear or take advantage of a proven history of VRBO rental income. The possibilities are endless!
