OPEN HOUSE! Monday July 14th 6:30 - 7:30pm.
Welcome to 1337 Shepard Dr, Duck Lake, Crystal, MI This beautifully updated 2-bedroom, 1-bath cottage has been rebuilt from the ground up. Whether you're enjoying a weekend retreat, summer escape, or full-time living, this home lets you enjoy lake life affordably.
The open floor plan offers beautiful water views from the main living areas. The gourmet kitchen features soft-close cabinetry, high-end appliances, and butcher block countertops. Originally designed as a guest house, the bedroom setup was optimized to sleep the maximum number of people, offering space for multiple beds—even though closets were not included in the original design.
Step outside to a spacious deck with stunning views of All-Sports Duck Lake. Directly across the street, enjoy the park for swimming, relaxing, or lakeside play. Just 200 feet away, there's a convenient spot for homeowners to launch their boats, perfect for getting on the water quickly without the crowds of a public ramp.
The detached two-car garage sits steps from the home, and the backyard offers peaceful farmland views. Other highlights include a private well with municipal sewer, clean and efficient hot water heat, an on-demand water heater, a new metal roof, and a fenced area for pets.
All located in a close-knit, friendly community with incredibly low HOA fees of just $25 per year.
Not only will you enjoy the best of lake life, but you'll also find plenty of fun just minutes away in downtown Crystal. Take in a classic movie at the vintage Crystal Theatre, go skating at Rainbow Gardens Roller Rink, or experience the thrill of the dirt track at Crystal Motor Speedway.
Duck Lake is conveniently located just an hour from Grand Rapids, Lansing, and Saginaw, and two hours from the Detroit area, making it an ideal lakefront escape that's never too far from home.
