Experience the beauty of waterfront living on Old Mission Peninsula with gorgeous sunset views. This inviting 4-bedroom, 3-bath home offering 150 feet of private sandy beach on West Bay and 2.43 acres of picturesque property. Set along the coveted shoreline, the home captures the timeless character of Northern Michigan with warm, natural finishes throughout. The main living spaces feature knotty pine walls, tile floors, and a fieldstone wood-burning fireplace, creating a comfortable setting for relaxing and gathering. A substantial 1,960 sq. ft. finished lower level provides valuable additional living space and flexibility for a variety of uses, whether as a recreation area, home office, guest space, or gathering area. The property also includes an impressive 816 sq. ft. detached second garage with loft area that could be finished for additional sq. ft., offering abundant room for vehicles, boats, recreational equipment, storage, or a workshop.
