If you’ve been searching for a home that feels private yet close to town, has Northern Michigan charm yet spacious, your search ends here. This stunning custom log home sits on five peaceful acres of mature woods and offers the perfect blend of rustic character and modern comfort, and is just minutes from downtown Petoskey and the lakeshore. Step inside to a dramatic living area with cathedral ceilings, a wall of windows, and an open layout that fills the home with natural light and beautiful woodland views. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed for both cooking and gathering, opening to the dining and living spaces that overlook the serene backyard. The main floor features a primary en-suite, full laundry room, and multiple access points to the wraparound porch where you can enjoy quiet mornings or evening sunsets. Upstairs, you’ll find additional en-suite bedrooms and a loft area that provides even more room for guests or flexible living. On the opposite side of the upper level, above the garage, a spacious finished bonus room includes its own full bath and laundry, offering a private and versatile space. The finished walkout lower level expands the living experience with tall ceilings, large windows, and access to the patio. This level includes a third en-suite, an additional bedroom, and a full bath, creating a bright and comfortable space for guests or family. Thoughtful storage areas are tucked away, allowing the living areas to feel every bit as refined and connected as the rest of the home. Outside, the fenced yard and surrounding trees create a private, park-like setting with plenty of space to enjoy Northern Michigan’s seasons. There’s room for an additional structure, such as a pole barn, for outdoor equipment or recreational vehicles. This exceptional home combines space, privacy, and timeless style in one of Petoskey’s most desirable areas.
