What if your backyard didn’t really end at your property line? At 5896 Betsie River Road, 2 private wooded acres meet DNR State land with access to the Betsie River, giving you a Northern Michigan playground just beyond your door. Trails, river, woods, wildlife and room to roam—it’s the kind of setting that makes coming home feel like getting away. The 1,800+ sq. ft. home offers 2 bedrooms, 2 baths, a possible 3rd bedroom, main-floor living, and a large open great room with plenty of space to gather. Much of the heavy lifting has already been done, with extensive improvements including the new roof, furnace, electrical, new encapsulated crawlspace, premium flooring, solid wood doors, fresh paint, out door hardscape improvements and more. And this property was made for enjoying the outdoors. Soak in the brand new 5-person hot tub under the gazebo, fire up the grill in the 24x20 covered BBQ pavilion, spend evenings around the fire pit, or put the fenced garden areas to work. Mature evergreens add privacy, while handcrafted lighted flagstone pillars welcome you up the paved driveway. Rebuilt carriage house could be a the perfect guest home. Bring the boat, kayaks, ATVs, tools and all the Up North toys. An attached 2-car garage, rebuilt carriage house, and storage shed give you plenty of room to store them. A private ensuite off the garage adds even more flexibility for guests, hobbies, or additional living space. A pre-listing inspection has already been completed. The home is offered as-is with furnishings included and possession at closing. If you’ve been searching for more than just a house—a place where you can fish the river, explore State land, sit around the fire, entertain outdoors and enjoy some real privacy—this is one you’ll want to experience in person.
