Looking for an affordable way to have your own place in Harbor Country without taking on a renovation project? This turnkey three-bedroom, two-bath Union Pier home offers more than five wooded acres, plenty of room to spread out, and a location that puts Lake Michigan beaches, trails, restaurants, wineries, farm markets, and shopping within easy reach. The home has already received the updates that make a primary home or second-home ownership easy, including a new roof and skylights, updated kitchen and baths, new flooring, air conditioning, fresh exterior paint, landscaping, screens, entryway, fire pit, and privacy fence. Inside, vaulted ceilings, skylights, and a fireplace create a comfortable gathering space, while the three-season room is an inviting spot for morning coffee, summer dinners, or relaxing after a day at the beach. There is also plenty of space for the things that come with a Harbor Country lifestyle. An attached two-car garage is complemented by a large, detached outbuilding with new lighting, storage, and a separate hobby room that could work as an office, studio, game room, or workshop. The full, waterproofed basement adds valuable recreation and living space and includes a new laundry area. With more than five acres, there is room to enjoy the property as it is or make it your own over time—add a pool, create outdoor entertaining areas, expand the gardens. Offered turnkey with exclusions and currently used as a short-term rental, this is an approachable way to own a ready-to-enjoy second home in Union Pier without the premium typically associated with being closer to the lake. Arrive, unpack, and start enjoying Harbor Country from day one. Buyers should independently verify current Chikaming Township short-term rental regulations and eligibility.
