The main floor includes eat-in kitchen and living room with fireplace and bathroom. Upstairs are 3 bedrooms. This location provides peaceful country living in Portage Township just minutes from Otter Lake and other recreational activities. Lots of wildlife in the area as well. The location also provides convenience to Baraga/L'Anse as well as the Houghton area. There is some opportunity for your sweat-equity as there are repairs and updates needed. The crawlspace and cinder block piers suffered some damage in the 2018 Father’s Day flood event and there are also water damage and roof repairs needed. Home hasn’t been occupied as a year-round home as this was used as more of a cottage. The seller is a non-occupant trustee and does not have a lot of information about the property.
