850 Jessica Lane

Welcome to 850 Jessica Lane in Rose City -- a truly exceptional 40-acre Northern Michigan retreat where privacy, recreation, and meticulously maintained country living come together in perfect harmony. Hidden at the end of a long, beautifully manicured driveway and surrounded by mature red pine forest with adjoining state land, this one-of-a-kind property offers an unmatched outdoor lifestyle with outstanding deer and turkey hunting opportunities, complete with established hunting blinds already in place. Built in 2002 and lovingly cared for since day one, the immaculate ranch home features approximately 1,200 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space, including 2 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms, a spacious open-concept living/great room, and a large utility room. The expansive rear porch overlooks one of two picturesque ponds, creating the perfect place to relax and take in the peaceful natural surroundings. Both ponds are stocked with fish, offering excellent recreational enjoyment right on the property. The primary pond features a sandy beach area and dock, while the second pond includes a windmill-powered aeration system designed to help maintain a healthy ecosystem. In addition to the home's primary well, the property also features three additional hand-pump wells located throughout the acreage, providing added convenience and multiple supplemental water sources across the property. The outdoor improvements throughout this estate are truly remarkable. Extensive professional landscaping showcases countless decorative stones and massive boulders carefully positioned across the grounds. A long limestone driveway accented with impressive stonework leads all the way to the gated entrance, creating a stunning first impression. Trex decking adds both beauty and durability, while a newer Amish-built greenhouse situated on a raised wood platform provides additional charm and functionality. The attached 3-car garage is heated and offers ample room for vehicles, recreational equipment, tools, storage, and side-by-sides. A detached approximately 28x30 stick-built garage perfectly complements the property and provides even more space for a workshop, equipment storage, or outdoor gear and is fully insulated with an insulted Garage door with opener. A charming 16x16 gazebo offers yet another peaceful setting to enjoy the beauty of the property. For additional peace of mind, the home is also equipped with a backup Generac generator system. Wildlife is abundant throughout the acreage, with frequent sightings of deer, turkeys, and other Northern Michigan wildlife right outside your door. Combined with the adjacent state land, mature timber, stocked ponds, and established hunting setup, this property is ideal for outdoor enthusiasts, hunters, or anyone seeking the perfect private recreational getaway, seasonal escape, or peaceful year-round home surrounded by nature and endless outdoor opportunities. The Rifle River Recreation Area is just across Sage Lake Rd. less than a mile away as well which provides even more recreational activities. This rare and meticulously maintained property is ready for its next owners to enjoy everything Northern Michigan living has to offer and create memories that will last a lifetime.
