This classic Upper Peninsula Craftsman is a showcase of timeless character and warmth.

Situated in the… Read More coveted X500 flood zone (flood insurance optional), it blends historic appeal with peace of mind.From the generous and welcoming full front porch, enter into a bright and open living room, and you'll immediately notice the 9+ foot ceiling heights and beautiful hardwood floors.

A set of glass-paned French doors leads to a spacious dining room, perfect for dinner parties or family gatherings, or easily adapted as a den or flex space if you prefer.
