Surrounded on two sides by the Huron National Forest, the property enjoys a spectacular wooded setting with Comins Creek crossing the rear of the acreage before flowing into the renowned AuSable River, located approximately one mile to the south. Once home to the Michigan AuSable Valley Railroad, this property was originally developed as a popular tourist attraction where visitors boarded a miniature passenger train for an 18-minute scenic journey through the picturesque jack pine forest. While the train itself is no longer on the property, much of the fascinating railroad character remains through an exceptional collection of purpose-built structures. Overlooking the beautiful Comins Creek Valley is a 750-square-foot rustic home, built in 1960, two bedrooms and two baths. Its peaceful setting and elevated valley views make it an ideal owner's retreat, guest cottage or base for a recreational venture. Adding tremendous character to the property is a turn-of-the-century-style Victorian railroad station, constructed in 1994. Measuring approximately 12' x 48. The former engine house, also constructed in 1994, measures approximately 18' x 72' and incorporates numerous custom features reflecting the property's railroad heritage. A 24' x 40' freight house, built in 1998, features six custom doors and could readily serve as a four-car garage, workshop, equipment building or recreational storage facility. The largest structure is the substantial 32' x 106' office and warehouse building, constructed in 2003. The interior is finished with painted drywall has two separate heating and cooling systems. With approximately 40 acres, multiple buildings, creek frontage, National Forest bordering two sides and the AuSable River approximately one mile away, the possibilities here are exceptional. ## Location - **Address:** 230 S Abbe Road, Fairview, MI 48621 - **County:** Oscoda - **Coordinates:** 44.676573, -84.051583 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=44.676573,-84.051583 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** RUTH CLEMENS - **Brokerage:** COLDWELL BANKER SCHMIDT REALTORS-HL - **Phone:** 9894293100 - **Broker Phone:** 9893665522 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://listings.listhub.net/pages/TAAR/1927884/?channel=propsimple) ## Photos ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f3180012450r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f2467148117r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f3180000198r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f2569664742r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f953943474r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f519467803r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f997999860r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f585324077r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f2398879641r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f1069109029r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f781315250r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f3307059325r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f319331955r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f3116040035r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f661974880r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f2825479400r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f97639464r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f1260701074r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f67538475r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f4062352902r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f2465287400r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f2052248154r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f1401846398r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f1604510077r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f3429301019r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f2650867917r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f2183208804r.jpg) ![230 S Abbe Road - Photo 28](http://lh.rdcpix.com/525abe5c313b37c43e617140db6a3915l-f251406878r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 1927884 | **Updated:** 2026-08-28 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Northern Great Lakes Realtors MLS.
