A country homesteading opportunity! This spacious 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom home includes a two-car garage and sits on approximately 40 acres just outside of the town of Dollar Bay. Notable features include a private backyard with a pond, a detached sauna, chicken coop, and the tranquility of country living, all while being conveniently located only 15+/- minutes from Houghton. The main floor boasts a well-equipped kitchen, dining area, living room, sitting area, office space, bedroom, laundry/mudroom, and two bathrooms. Upstairs, you’ll find two more bedrooms and a half bathroom. The living spaces are enhanced by a gas fireplace, abundant natural light, and large windows offering picturesque views of the countryside and wooded backyard. The attached garage provides direct access to the mudroom and offers workshop space plus an upstairs storage area. The third bathroom is located off the mudroom. Outdoor amenities include a sauna near the pond that attracts wildlife and provides scenic views—ideal for traditional ‘sauna and swim’ experiences. Land this close to town is rare, featuring frontage on both Upper Point Mills Road (a paved county road) and Engman Road (a seasonal dirt road), allowing flexible access, added value and other potential building sites. The grounds showcase mid-growth hardwoods and softwoods for privacy, plus a chicken coop, barn (in need of repair), mature apple trees, pear tree, and cleared areas perfect for homesteading and enjoying wildlife. Located about seven miles from Michigan Tech and the cities of Houghton and Hancock, the pond is fed by a creek with both seasonal and year-round water. Heating includes forced air on the main level, electric baseboard upstairs, and passive vents to circulate heat. A gas fireplace with blower adds supplemental warmth. The area above the garage has begun renovations for additional living space and already has electricity. Recent upgrades include a metal roof (2024), a well (2018+/-), and a new line connecting the well to the house (2024). This parcel has +/- 1309 ft of frontage on Upper Point Mills Rd, and +/- 1350 ft of frontage on Engmans Rd.
