Rural retreat meets year-round practicality! Set on approximately 28 wooded acres along M-95, this three-bedroom, one-bath raised ranch offers the privacy of a recreational property with the ease that comes with year-round access. You are approximately 35 miles from Iron Mountain, 50 miles from Marquette and 25 miles from Lake Michigamme and Van Riper State Park, with Craig Lake State Park and other outdoor destinations also within reach. The property itself is built for exploring. Multiple trail systems give you room to walk, hike and hunt during the warmer months, then snowshoe or cross-country ski through your own acreage in the winter. A logging road provides convenient access toward the back of the property. The seller reports seeing bear, moose, deer, grouse, wolves and a wide variety of birds throughout the land. Inside, the home features three main-level bedrooms, a full bathroom, a spacious living room, an open kitchen and dining area, and a lower-level recreation room with an attached two-car drive-under garage. The home would benefit from cosmetic updates, but several important improvements have already been completed, including a new septic system and drain field in 2023, well and pump in 2017, the roof in 2017–2018, a chimney cap in 2020 and tankless water heater in 2018. The seller also reports that the basement wood stove is to code, helping supplement the home’s heat and keep costs down, with access to downed timber throughout the property. If you’re looking to leave the city behind without giving up accessibility, this property offers the best of both worlds: a comfortable year-round home surrounded by the privacy, wildlife and recreation of approximately 28 wooded acres.
