Beautiful Hide-A-Way! This awesome three (3) bedroom, two (2) bathroom Chalet on Chippewa (Fife) Creek is tucked away from the road assuring privacy. It is a one of a kind home with great attention to details. It features a large kitchen and dining room which opens into a large living room boasting a cathedral ceiling with a skylight and a view of the loft area. The three (3) large custom sliding doors open onto a large deck which wraps around three sides of the house and provides delightful cross ventilation, opportunities for outside entertainment and excellent views of the creek. The babbling brook can be clearly seen and heard from the deck. There is a large outside light over the deck as well as subtle, mood setting lighting set into the deck itself...(see more) The three-quarter open loft is a very versatile space which includes an area that may be used for the third bedroom. The sitting area looks down into the living room and also provides another excellent view of the creek. The staircase to the loft provides a wonderful backdrop for family photos. There is a large family room downstairs with a walkout (both a sliding glass door as well as egress from another door). It features a custom wet bar that includes parts salvaged from a bar reminiscent of Cheers and an area that may be used as a game room. The entire home presents options and opportunities for entertaining friends and family inside and/or outside. The downstairs also includes a large gorgeous bath with ceramic tile, a jetted tub and a large shower/sauna. The home includes central air conditioning and two large propane tanks (owned by the resident) as the fuel source for the furnace. It also includes outdoor security monitors which will alert you to visiting deer. This home has loads of storage with large closets and two outbuildings. The roof was replaced earlier this year (2019). New carpet was installed in the loft and main floor. For the "fisherfolk" in your family, the creek running right by your new house holds trout. It is also very near hiking, biking and ATV trails. It is a short trip to Cadillac or to Traverse City. The current owners love how this home is the perfect size  providing a feeling of cozy while still feeling spacious. They also love both the natural light provided by the skylight, sliding doors and windows as well as the ample lighting from the fixtures throughout the home when the sun just doesn't want to cooperate. Another feature the current owners will miss is the sound of the babbling brook. They were known to open one of the sliding glass doors even during the winter to hear it as, in their experience, it did not freeze over. This is a very fine home for year round living or for weekend retreats. Call today
