Delightful farmette in the heart of Benzie County is a storybook setting from a bygone era. This historic, family property dates back to the 1860's with two story barn, outbuildings and farmhouse built in the 1900's but has modern conveniences of today. House has 3 bedrooms, 3-car attached garage, 1.5 baths with newer roof, conventional septic with drainfield, boiler and back patio all updated in 2006. Enjoy beautiful sunsets from the gorgeous covered front porch. Lower level of the milk barn has an unexpected, studio with full bath featuring a claw foot tub and loads of charm! New metal roof on barn in 2019! All buildings have been lovingly updated with a warm inviting feel. The structures sit on 2-acres with a half acre well-suited for planting an orchard or vineyard (gradual slope, south-facing). Grow herbs and veggies in the hoop house (zoned RP-5 rural preservation). Property is deemed a Botanical Sanctuary by United Plant Savers. Secluded yet close to town. A stones throw away from three golf courses and wonderful fishing! Only 35-minutes to downtown Traverse City, 10-minutes to Big Platte Lake/River, Crystal Lake and Lake Michigan. 18-minutes to Interlochen or Frankfort and under 15-minutes to three beaches in the National Lakeshore. A peaceful, central location to call home!
