Discover the untapped potential of this unique off-grid homestead nestled on a sprawling 40 acres in Skandia, MI. As you venture into this property, you're greeted by a harmonious blend of woodlands and the gentle murmur of a stream meandering along the parcel's edge. The land is a treasure trove of nature's bounty, boasting an array of berry bushes, nut trees, and fruit trees like apples, pears, plums, and cherries. Imagine cultivating your own garden amidst this natural abundance! Wildlife enthusiasts will be thrilled with the frequent sightings of deer, bear, wolf, and other creatures that traverse the extensive trail systems, making it an ideal hunting lodge. The main residence, set on approximately 8 cleared acres, is a haven of tranquility, enveloped by the serene forest. The property's infrastructure is impressive. It's designed for complete off-grid living with solar and wind power capabilities. Alternatively, you can tap into the grid and even earn from the surplus electricity generated. Storage needs are amply met with a massive 56x60 garage, fortified by a 5" concrete slab, perfect for housing heavy equipment. A greenhouse/guest house has great space and tons of potential, located near the entrance to the property. The home's design is intriguing. Upon entering, you're led through a central corridor connecting the cozy living areas to a spacious front gym/flex space, ingeniously crafted from a 60x80 pole barn. The potential for expansion is evident, with possibilities to add 3-4 bedrooms between the loft space and bonus studio rooms. A 1000-gallon septic tank and rainwater collection system underscore the property's self-sufficiency. A guest cabin, equipped with its own septic, offers additional accommodation options (requires plumbing). Whether you envision this as a hunting lodge, a musical retreat, or a sustainable off-grid haven, the possibilities are boundless. With flexible zoning, this property invites you to dream big and make it your own!
