5981 N 41 1/2 Manton, MI 49663

SO much to offer here! 31 Acres m/l, mixed woods, a meadow, creek & small pond all make for a lovely rural setting for this well cared for home. The house has 4 bedrooms, 2 baths, family room AND living room both on the main floor, an island kitchen, lovely cherry & ash trim throughout, hardwood floors, French doors from the living room to the family room, and the dining area has a unique 'tin ceiling'!! There's also a spacious unfinished 3 season room. The property has served a successful small farm business for 30 years as well as small homestead farm. There is a small, productive apple orchard, perennial gardens and organic garden site. There's an older hip-roof barn that has a heated workshop area, and a great loft. Plus a 40 X 60 pole building with 12' sidewalls with an enclosed lean-to. This newer structure is on its own well and separate metered electric service! Awesome storage, or workshop with concrete floor, or could be a small business opportunity! The land offers a pretty little creek with a footbridge over it, walking-trails through the woods, and an elevated deer blind in the middle of great wildlife habitat! Now let's talk 'location'...only a mile from the small town of Manton, approximately 5 miles +/- to the Manistee River and about 15 minutes to the northern shopping district of Cadillac. The area features access to some fabulous all sports lakes, snowmobile and ski trails and is only about 45 minutes to Traverse City and beautiful Lake Michigan!! 'Gotta' see this one!
