Overview

Description

Pine River Twp. – A doe and fawn wade in the shallow pond just below this striking 3BR/2BA show place perched above 13 private picturesque acres with heavy tree coverage. The home features slab on grade construction with in-floor heat, a security system, an attached heated garage and a bonus game room on the upper level. There is a 300 SF (+) basement utility room also providing storm shelter. The curb appeal is evident with an attractive smart siding exterior. The landscaping is inviting with a manicured lawn and a rock-work wall on the ascending driveway. The attention to detail has not been spared when looking at the quality workmanship involved. Soaring vaulted ceilings add to the charm of this amazing country estate.
