Set along sandy private frontage on Pickerel Lake just outside Petoskey, this home is thoughtfully positioned to capture both the shoreline and surrounding natural setting. The main living spaces are oriented toward the water, creating an easy visual connection to the lake while maintaining a sense of openness throughout. Inside, the updated open concept kitchen anchors the main level and flows seamlessly into the living and dining areas. The layout creates a bright, cohesive environment suited for everyday living or hosting guests. Large Pella windows frame lake views and bring natural light into the heart of the home. A main floor primary suite allows for comfortable single level living, making the property well suited for year round use or extended stays. The manageable lot size offers a balanced approach to waterfront ownership with meaningful frontage and direct water access without an oversized footprint. Pickerel Lake is part of Northern Michigan’s Inland Waterway, offering boating access to Crooked Lake, Burt Lake, Mullett Lake, and Lake Huron. This connected chain provides miles of navigable waterways for cruising, fishing, and exploring multiple waterfront communities by boat. Located just minutes from downtown Petoskey, Bay Harbor, and Harbor Springs, the property pairs lake living with convenient access to dining, golf, skiing, and year round amenities. For buyers seeking an Inland Waterway home that prioritizes access, ease, and long term enjoyment of Northern Michigan, this opportunity delivers.
