Sometimes all you need is a little place to escape, where the days move a bit slower and the simple things become the best part of being Up North. Just outside the charming village of Lake Ann, this cozy bungalow offers a chance to enjoy Northern Michigan living without all the fuss. Whether you're looking for your first home, a weekend hideaway, or a place to retreat whenever the mood strikes, there's plenty to appreciate about this little gem. With shared access to Sanford Lake, you can spend your summer days kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing, or simply enjoying the peaceful waters of this no-wake lake. The community waterfront area, complete with a dock, picnic tables, grill, and small playground, makes it easy to pack a picnic and spend the afternoon by the water. And when the seasons change, the adventures don't have to stop. Hundreds of acres of state land right across the road offer room to explore, wander the woods, and enjoy the outdoors throughout the year. Back at home, this bungalow offers comfortable living space, with an open flow between the living room and kitchen. A brand-new hot water heater and newer furnace are welcome updates. When you don't feel like cooking, head down the road for pizza from Papa J's, grab a drink at Lake Ann Brewing Company, or stop by Red Door Coffee House. Lake Ann Grocery is close by for those last-minute necessities, and Traverse City is only about 25 minutes away. It's the kind of place where you can spend the day exploring, enjoy an evening by the lake, and come home to a little space that's all your own. Sometimes, that's everything you need.
