KALKASKA - A HIDDEN GEM!




I was in a meeting the other day with a Realtor who mainly works in Grand Traverse County and we were comparing markets.  While her market is very urban my market - predominately Kalkaska County - is rather rural even though we are only a half hour away from Traverse City.  She feels Kalkaska is a hidden gem!! I feel that way also.  We are almost 50% state land and boast 90 lakes and 3 rivers plus numerous streams in our county.  We have fewer subdivisions but many acreage parcels with lovely homes or waterfront properties.  Five of the cleanest lakes in the state of Michigan are in Kalkaska County, We boast the Manistee River, Boardman River and the Rapid River as prime recreational areas.  We also have the southern end of Torch Lake in our county with some of the best waterfront on that entire lake.

I recently listed this beautifully maintained ranch style home including a 30 x 40 pole building with lean/to, water and electric sitting on a very private 80 acres of hardwoods with the Vipond Creek meandering through the property.  Great set up for year around living. recreational or seasonal.  The 3 BR home has had many updates and is heated with gas or wood buring stove.  Click Here to view the entire listing.  It is one of only a few homes offered currently on this large of a property.
