## Description

### Agent Description
Nestled on a quiet canal just a 5-minute boat ride from beautiful Houghton Lake, this stunning 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath home offers over 5,000 square feet of living space designed for comfort, entertaining, and year-round enjoyment. With 86 feet of canal frontage, plenty of room for your boat and water toys, and peaceful waterfront views, this property is the perfect Up North retreat or full-time residence. Step inside to a spacious open-concept layout where the kitchen and dining area flow seamlessly into the large living room, creating the ideal gathering space for family and friends. The main floor features 3 generous bedrooms along with beautiful living areas filled with natural light. Upstairs, you'll find an office/bonus room that offers endless possibilities for a home office, workout room, game room, or additional guest space. The finished walkout lower level is like a home of its own, complete with a second kitchen, a huge family/recreation area, 2 additional bedrooms, and a full bath--perfect for extended family, guests, or entertaining. There is also an oversized storage area along with an attached walkout garage ideal for storing lawn equipment, tools, snowmobiles, jet skis, and all your lake-life essentials. Outside, the backyard leads directly to the canal where your boat awaits just steps away. The impressive 4.5 car garage and abundant storage throughout the property provide plenty of room for vehicles, recreational equipment, and hobbies. Located directly across the road from a wooded Township Park with walking trails and only minutes from restaurants, shopping, golfing, marinas, trails, and all the fun that Houghton Lake has to offer, this exceptional waterfront property combines space, functionality, and lake living at its finest.
