Currently operating as a successful short-term rental, this turn-key property is fully booked for the season, offering immediate income potential for new owners. Whether you're looking for a peaceful lakefront retreat or a smart investment, this home delivers both. Inside, you'll find original hardwood floors, vintage wood doors, and classic beamed ceilings that radiate warmth and rustic charm. A stunning fieldstone fireplace serves as the heart of the home and is complemented by a new pellet stove (installed winter 2022) for cozy, efficient heat. Additional updates include GFI outlets throughout. The open-concept living and dining areas has expansive lake views and feature a charming gas log stove for added ambiance. The three-season sunroom is perfect for relaxing or entertaining while taking in the tranquil sights and sounds of the lake. The primary bedroom has a private covered patio with lake views, while a second adjoining bedroom offers a convenient suite-style setup. Just off the detached garage, there is a 224 sq ft unfinished bonus room facing the lake. It has excellent potential for a future guest suite, game room, office, or creative space. Outside, the setting is serene and picturesque. Big Platte Lake is a 2,516-acre, all-sports lake with direct connection to the Lower Platte River and Lake Michigan, ideal for boating, kayaking, and paddleboarding. Located on a quiet street just off the scenic M-22 corridor, youre minutes from Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and the charming towns of Beulah, Frankfort, Empire, and Glen Arbor. This is your chance to own a true slice of Northern Michigan paradise, beautifully maintained, income-producing, and ready for its next chapter.
