Description
PRIVATE RIVERFRONT RETREAT NESTLED ON 277' FRONTAGE ALONG THE LEGENDARY ''FLIES ONLY'' NORTH BRANCH AU SABLE RIVER, a historic blue-ribbon trout stream renowned for its premier Brook and Brown trout and fabled history. Set on a private dead-end road just downstream from the North Branch Headwaters, this extraordinary 3-bedroom, 3-bath home is situated on 2+ wooded acres approx. 75' from the river's edge, offering privacy, abundant wildlife, and breathtaking views! Experience exceptional fly-fishing steps from your door on approx. 200' width frontage or relax on the deck and take in the serene sounds of the peacefully flowing Au Sable River. Step inside to a spacious, open-concept family room with gas fireplace, loft, kitchen, main level dining room, laundry and master bedroom ensuite. Exterior features a beautifully landscaped rock garden, 2.5 car garage with a 'bonus' Fishing/Tackle workshop and an extra 32x10 Shed with workshop to store your 'Toys'! Located near thousands of acres of state land, with a convenient nearby restaurant, gas, and access to ATV/Snowmobile trails, this is a truly RARE opportunity to own a private riverfront retreat or full-time home on the sought-after "Flies Only" Au Sable North Branch abounding in Northern Michigan recreation opportunities! The subject property is in Crawford County (Lovells Township) along one of the most historically important trout-fishing sections of the North Branch. Michigan DNR identifies the North Branch as a top-quality brook and brown trout stream and notes that the river is less heavily fished and has little canoe traffic compared with the Main Au Sable. The flies-only section begins at the Sheep Ranch Public Access above Twin Bridges and continues approximately twenty-one miles downstream to the mouth. The Lovells-area portion is particularly well suited to wading.
