A 31-Acre Private Retreat: Space, Nature, and Endless Possibilities in One Property

 

If privacy, space, and flexibility are priorities, this 31.2-acre property offers a secluded lifestyle while still being within “roughly 30 minutes of Escanaba and Iron Mountain.” It blends isolation with access, making it suitable for full-time living, seasonal use, or long-term investment.

The land sits at the end of a quiet road, creating an immediate sense of separation from everyday noise. It combines open areas with wooded sections, offering both usable ground and natural surroundings. A private pond adds value and calm, serving as a space for fishing, wildlife viewing, or quiet outdoor time. The setting is designed for people who want room to spread out without losing connection to nearby towns.

The home itself, built in 1984, provides over 2,000 square feet above ground and more than 3,200 total square feet. It includes four bedrooms and five bathrooms, giving flexibility for families, guests, or multi-use living. Two bedrooms, including the primary, are located on the main floor for convenience. The living room features a wood-burning fireplace, and the kitchen includes an eat-in area plus a separate dining room for larger gatherings.

Upstairs, additional bedrooms and a large family room expand the living space, while a bonus room above the attached garage—with its own bathroom—can serve as a guest suite, office, or private retreat. The layout supports both shared living and personal space, depending on needs.

Additional features include hardwood flooring, a workshop area, and an unfinished basement with room for future expansion. Heating options such as forced air, propane, and wood add year-round practicality. Outside, a pole barn, lean-to, and attached garage provide strong storage and utility options.

With nearby trail access and zoning that supports both residential and resource use, the property fits recreation and everyday living. As a foreclosure listing on Zillow, it is presented as an opportunity for buyers willing to “invest, renovate, and make it their own.”
