Frankenmuth, MI
12715 E Tuscola Road
$149,900
No neighbors!!!

Rare opportunity to buy a “fixer upper” in Frankenmuth schools, and priced to sell! If a farmhouse project is your dream, this one may be the one! Lower level has been somewhat updated, as it was currently rented, upstairs needs some work. Also, may need roof, septic field, and exterior is in need of paint, & priced to reflect that. Lots of space with 5 bedrooms, huge kitchen, (with a corner fireplace, super cozy), dining room, 1st floor laundry, nice sized updated bathroom with a huge linen closet, some new carpeting on the first level, and 4 outbuildings. It is a gorgeous treed lot on 1.09 acres, just minutes from town, & would make a great family home. No neighbors, farmer will use barns behind the property seasonally, & property was formally split.

Adorable woodsy cabin!

This historic gem of a find is priced to sell AS-IS and is waiting for it's new owner to make it shine. While tax records show the cabin was built in 1954, the previous owner stated that this quaint log cabin was built in the 1930's for the Norris Dam Civilian Conservation Core (CCC) . You can enjoy the sounds of the spring-fed creek year-round in the serenity of the trees. This cabin is a short 0.7 mile walk to Hickory Star Marina and Norris Lake. The antique Hoosier cabinet, claw foot tub, refrigerator, oven, bed and bed frame, and two armoires are to remain with the sale of the cabin.
