Description

Here’s a unique opportunity in the Lake Mine area of Ontonagon County with deep roots in Upper Peninsula mining history dating back to the 1840s. The property includes a compact 19th-century home with roughly 680 square feet of space. While the structure shows its age, it retains original-looking siding, windows, and vintage interior details, including old wallpaper and personal property. The rear addition is in poor condition and should be removed and the home would benefit from a new foundation. It is covered by a metal roof. Behind the house there is an outhouse and a natural spring that could potentially feed a small pond. The land rises about 150 feet to a bluff with expansive views of the surrounding ridgelines. Mature white pines, oaks, and maples cover the property, and a creek and gully run through one corner. The parcel borders over 600 acres of State of Michigan land and offers direct access to snowmobile and ATV trails off the backside. Mass City is just a short drive away for basic services. There are multiple potential cabin sites, including on the ridge saddle or at the high point of the property, where a winding driveway could likely be built. In spring, the woods fill with thousands of white trilliums. Viewing are by permission only.
