Gilmore Township, MI 49635

Charming, extensively updated 1886 farmhouse and detached two-car garage on 5.5 countryside acres. Just 3.5 miles to Lake Michigan sandy beaches. The seller says this is the site of the historic Fredrickson Tulip Farm. Dutch tidiness is evident in the many built-in cupboards and shelves found inside the home and in the placement of shrubs and flowers in the landscaped yard. The spacious farmhouse features 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, a formal dining area, small office, large loft sitting area, walk-in pantry off the kitchen, an enclosed porch/mudroom and a 500 sq. ft basement for storage. The primary bedroom was updated in 2023 and has its own bath with a 5 ft. long shower enclosure and a washer dryer. This home wonderfully blends farmhouse character of yesteryear with modern amenities. There is nothing like authentic, original plaster lathe walls and ceilings, and the warmth of original wood floors and woodwork. A set of French doors and a clawfoot bathtub with showerhead add touches of charm. Interior upgrades include the replacement of all windows, newer vinyl plank flooring, stainless appliances, hot water baseboard heat an updated electrical panel and updated water heater. For low maintenance, the exterior of the home was updated to include vinyl shake siding and a steel metal roof the garage has metal siding and a newer metal roof. Interior stairs in the garage lead to a large, unfinished loft that could make a great studio or extra sleeping space. Natural gas supplies the house and a pipe to the garage was run for future use. The original wooden shed is large and needs a new roof. The yard is big, with container and flower gardens, dog kennels and a pen, a small deck, a chicken coop/garden area, firepit, and some woods with a walking path. Bonus: approx. 1 acre of invisible fencing. Village amenities are found in Benzonia, Elberta or Frankfort. The nearby Betsie River is known for great fishing, kayaking and birding.
