This secluded, stately 4 bedroom home sits nicely off the road, a pristine island in a sylvan sea of hardwoods. At nearly 6 acres, the property is bordered by hundreds of acres of conservancy land and state forest, yet is only 15 minutes from downtown Petoskey. Is the best feature of this home the peace and quiet, the west facing porch with hot tub, the downstairs workshop, integrated sound system or outdoor wood burner that feeds the furnace to cut down on winter fuel costs? There are many ways to embrace this fantastic location for relaxation, recreation or restoration. Landscaping frames the entire house, and a hardscaped stone path leads to the large front porch. Inside to the right is an office which could again be a formal dining room. Cathedral ceilings in the great room and window views of the woods outside create an airy and bright interior. A breathtaking stone fireplace with hewn mantle centers the living room. This is a wood-burning fireplace with heat-a-later.
