Recreational Land with Home for Sale in Carp Lake, Michigan
2263 Elder Rd, Carp Lake, MI 49718
A rare Northern Michigan retreat where refined living meets the freedom of the outdoors. Set on 50 private wooded acres bordering state land, this exceptional 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath custom-built home offers privacy, space, and an unparalleled lifestyle in beautiful Carp Lake. Designed for both everyday living and memorable gatherings, the home provides a comfortable 4-bedroom layout with nearly 1,000 square feet of unfinished basement space, offering an exciting opportunity to create a custom recreation room, home gym, guest space, or additional living area. The surrounding acreage provides a level of privacy and natural beauty that is increasingly difficult to find. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the property's direct connection to thousands of acres of adjoining public land. Mature timber, a creek, varied terrain, and abundant wildlife create a truly private setting for hunting, hiking, riding, and exploring. A secluded 2.5-3 acre interior clearing features an established trail loop, multiple deer blinds-including an elevated blind-and excellent potential for a private food plot or family recreation area. A scenic natural ridge near the rear of the property rises approximately 30 feet above a marshy pond and creek corridor, creating a peaceful setting for wildlife viewing and enjoying the surrounding landscape. The impressive 32' x 44' detached garage adds tremendous versatility with room for vehicles, recreational equipment, hunting gear, a workshop, and all the extras that come with Northern Michigan living. This is more than a home-it is a private Northern Michigan lifestyle property where comfortable living, outdoor adventure, and room to roam come together. A truly special opportunity for those seeking privacy, quality, and an exceptional connection to nature.
