Originally built in 1903 as the first District 3 schoolhouse in the Littlefield School District (often known as the ''Jack Woods School''), this memorable landmark--featured in the ''Pageant of Tuscarora''--has been thoughtfully converted into a charming 2-bedroom cottage that still celebrates its original open, log-raftered spaciousness. Set atop a beautifully wooded 3-acre hill in historic ''Ohioville,'' you'll love cozy evenings by the stone fireplace with a wood-burning insert, complemented by a high-efficiency furnace. Major updates including the furnace, roof, and windows were completed in the late 2000s. Offered fully furnished... see supplement for additional details. Offered fully furnished, this inviting retreat is ready for you to enjoy right away--whether as a peaceful vacation getaway or a strong investment as a vacation rental. Ideally located in the heart of Northern Michigan, you're just minutes from the Inland Waterway, thousands of acres of the Pigeon River State Forest, and the sparkling waters of Burt Lake, Mullett Lake, and Crooked Lake.
