Historic Farmhouse on 14 Acres with Modern Updates, Full Fencing, & Kal-Haven Trail Access Step into the charm of an early-1900s farmhouse with the space, privacy, and infrastructure to create the rural lifestyle you've been dreaming about. Set on 14 acres that have been thoughtfully managed without the use of pesticides or herbicides, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends historic character with extensive modern improvements—and offers private gated access to the Kal-Haven Trail, all just 25 minutes from Lake Michigan. The home has been thoughtfully updated while preserving its farmhouse appeal, with new hardwood flooring, carpet, trim and paint, two updated bathrooms, new washer, well pump, hot water heater, electrical breaker box, wood-burning furnace, and an oversized mini-split heating and cooling system. Fiber-optic internet adds reliable modern connectivity. Outside, the property is ready for a wide range of possibilities. The fully fenced acreage includes rotational grazing pastures, a new livestock barn with run, updated stalls and livestock birthing areas, multiple outdoor livestock shelters, chicken coop, extensive fencing with solar energizers, raised garden beds, fruit and native trees, walking trails, and a firepit. A USDA-certified pollinator strip adds another thoughtful touch to this carefully managed property. For buyers interested in continuing the agricultural improvements, an optional, transferable USDA contract is in place with cost-sharing approval for more than $70,000 in improvements, including a new well and watering system, access roads, composting, rain collection, pit fill, and additional fencing. The program is an opportunity—not a requirement—giving the next owner the choice to take advantage of an already approved path for further property investment. Whether you envision a peaceful country homestead, working farm, hobby farm, equestrian property, garden retreat, or simply a place with room to breathe, this property offers something increasingly hard to find: history, privacy, usable acreage, extensive infrastructure, and a lifestyle that begins right outside your door. A special piece of the countryside, thoughtfully improved and ready for its next chapter.
