MOTIVATED SELLER! PRICE-REDUCED Wilderness Retreat 40 Minutes North of Mackinac Bridge. Incomparable craftsmanship and unequaled privacy reign supreme at this magnificent, multi-structure estate. Affectionately known as Gray Stone Manor, this residence merges the finest natural materials (rosewood floors, artisan-designed metal stairway balustrade), with a location that immerses you in the remarkable beauty of the Eastern U.P. The main home is distinguished by a great room with vaulted roof, floor-to-ceiling fieldstone fireplace, and a locally harvested cedar mantel. There are nature-inspired flourishes that accentuate light fixtures and hallway sconces; tiger-striped maple window and door frames; and intricate wildlife engravings that create a decorative theme for select bedrooms. A carriage house perfectly complements the main home, and features two bedrooms and baths, plus a loft bedroom and first-floor, 16 x 20 workshop. Eighty acres of private land surrounding the estate provide a spacious template for configuring equestrian structures, and there is a picturesque clearing adjacent to the home that would be perfect for a barn and fencing. This incredibly unique and secluded homesite is located amidst 40-square miles of seasonal roads, trails, and extensive state forest, with 1,500 acres of state land bordering the south boundary. Gray Stone Manor offers a truly rare opportunity to own a legacy property in one of the most enchanting and undiscovered places in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Sold fully furnished.
