A little bit of magic in Frankfort! Tucked into 2.5 wooded acres, this charming early-1900s home offers a storybook setting, year-round Lake Michigan views and one delightful surprise after another. Extensively remodeled while preserving its original character, the 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,500 sq ft, including a recently completed 500+ sq ft addition. The addition created a beautiful new primary suite with a spa-like bath featuring a large fully tiled shower and double vanity. The rest of the home has been refreshed as well, including new flooring throughout and a brand-new kitchen with solid-surface countertops, new cabinetry and new appliances. One of the home's true treasures is the enclosed porch, where original woodwork and a wall of windows frame the year-round Lake Michigan view. Grab the binoculars and watch the ships pass by! Outside, the property gets even more interesting. An old barn with an existing loft offers loads of possibility, while the partially converted garage—with electricity—provides an eclectic studio or creative space. Follow the path into the woods and you'll even discover a private campsite with a geodesic dome, wood-burning stove and large fire-pit area—a memorable spot for overnight guests or simply family fun. It feels wonderfully tucked away, yet is within walking distance of downtown Frankfort and Lake Michigan. Enjoy the shops, restaurants, beach and everything this beloved lakeshore community has to offer, then retreat home to your own private 2.5-acre haven. Updated without losing its soul, this is anything but an ordinary Frankfort home.
