Property Description
Beautiful Starvation Lake — where the livin’ is easy and Northern Michigan memories are made. All-sports crystal-clear lake, stocked with Rainbow and Brown Trout. TURN KEY furnished! This stately four-season waterfront retreat offers the rare opportunity to enjoy an abundant 3-acre paradise with over 128’ of private sandy-bottom frontage. There are many newer homes and estates developing on Starvation Lake with lower density and a setting known to be peaceful and tranquil. Beautifully updated home where you can simply move in, relax, and start enjoying lake life from day one. Thoughtful updates, including a stunning timber peg front porch addition, blend timeless. Newer Roof, whole house generator, improvement list provided in the full listing. Up North charm with comfortable year-round living. Outdoors, there is a wonderful outdoor sauna right next to the “she shed.” 1,312 sqft of TimberTech decking plus an additional 452 sqft of main-floor wood lakeside deck, where you can watch the lake glisten from sunrise to sunset. Nearby four-season ATV and snowmobile trails, access right from your front door! Ride through thousands of acres of national forest land, endless outdoor recreation if desired, all while being conveniently located near Bellaire, Gaylord, Petoskey, and Traverse City. From the corner general store to world-class restaurants within 30 minutes. Away from the road noise and congestion! River Canoeing nearby at the Manistee River which rivals the Crystal River at a fraction of the crowd! You get more for the money here — more peace, more privacy, more recreation, and more of the simple moments that matter most.
