When the summer heat rolls in, you'll be glad this backyard is your home base. Rarely does a property combine nearly five acres of privacy, a spacious updated home, and an outdoor setup built for making memories quite like this one. Tucked away on a lightly traveled road in Birch Run Township and located within Frankenmuth Schools, this 4.75-acre retreat offers a peaceful setting where deer, turkey, and even Bald Eagles frequent. Inside, the home has been updated. Luxury vinyl plank flooring, wrought-iron railings, and a refreshed kitchen featuring shaker-style cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, and stainless steel appliances make it move-in ready. The dining room is built for gatherings, while the raised living room offers the perfect spot to unwind. The primary suite is a retreat, featuring a private entrance, expansive bedroom space, a massive walk-in closet, and a bathroom that complete with double sinks and an oversized walk-in shower. Upstairs, you'll find four additional bedrooms, two full bathrooms, including one connected to a potential second suite, plus a large bonus room. The garage has been transformed into a practical laundry and storage area, with a spiral staircase leading to the bonus space above. Outside, the 26x36 detached garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, recreational equipment, and projects, while additional outbuildings offer endless possibilities for workshops, storage, hobby spaces. Summer is where this property truly shines. Mature trees create a picturesque backdrop, while the above-ground pool is ready for long afternoons of swimming, relaxing, and entertaining. As an added bonus, the property's existing short-term rental permit is transferable, creating a unique opportunity for those looking to generate income and operate a vacation rental. With city water, a standby generator, nearly five acres of land, and a location within highly desirable Frankenmuth Schools, this is a rare opportunity for space, privacy, and flexibility.
