Some places just have a stillness to them. This classic home is one of them - far enough from the noise to feel like a world apart, close enough to Traverse City to make it practical. Set on 2 acres, the 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 2,075 square feet of living that's efficient without feeling cramped - a well-proportioned kitchen, generous living and dining areas, and a sunlit family room. The main floor hosts one bedroom, with two more upstairs, each with natural light and room to breathe. Out back, a deck looks out over open countryside, acting as a natural extension of the living space. An attached 2-car garage keeps things practical. The property has a history as a successful short-term rental - and for those with bigger plans, an additional 8 acres is available separately.
