With 690' of frontage on Shanty Creek, the 2 BR 1BA home is less than .4 mile from Grass River, 1.5 miles from the Lake Bellaire public access, & under 10 minutes to Shanty Creek Resort. Once popular as a trout pond, the water flows freely now & you might still catch a brook trout. Originally built in 1888, and updated over the years, it retains its historic charm with a wraparound porch, detailed woodwork, and multiple parlors, while being equipped with modern comforts.

Large windows provide serene views of the creek and grounds and multiple doors lead to the porch. The main floor includes one of two bedrooms & an updated bath with custom tile, heated floors, tile shower, and a vanity made from an antique dresser. The kitchen offers generous storage, a built-in banquette, and stone chimney accents. There is plenty of space if you wish to make updates. A full-length enclosed back porch overlooks the creek & a deck outside also overlooks the creek. The Michigan basement, with original stone foundation & abundant storage, includes the washer/dryer connections. Outside, you'll find a storage shed & one of the original guest cabins.
