Completely remodeled in 2020, the home features a new roof, flooring, and fresh paint throughout, along with an updated kitchen complete with appliances. The renovation also included a new, large picture window in the living room. For added peace of mind, a new furnace and water heater were installed in 2023. This property offers the tranquility of a countryside setting while being conveniently close to the town of Beulah. Furthermore, it's just three-quarters of a mile from the stunning sunsets over Crystal Lake. With Frankfort and Lake Michigan only 10 miles away and Traverse City within a 25-mile drive, you'll always be near beautiful destinations. Imagine relaxing by the wood-burning fireplace or hosting gatherings around the outdoor fire pit. I encourage you to schedule a visit to experience this charming home firsthand.
