421 Wachtel Avenue, Petoskey, MI

About 421 Wachtel Avenue

Beautiful Downtown Petoskey Classic walking distance to the Gaslight District and featuring a deep, private back yard that sits on a high bluff overlooking the Bear River Valley. There are also Lake Michigan views from this updated and well-maintained stunner that has a rich history of lucky owners who have enjoyed exactly what you want: to be close to town but in a private setting with no neighbors in sight behind you. The main floor features an updated kitchen with stone countertops and ample cupboard space, an eat-in kitchen table for when you don't want to use the formal dining area, and a recently updated bathroom complete with a gigantic tile shower, custom closets, and a main floor laundry. The first floor flows beautifully and is the perfect gateway to the unbelievable rear deck (Trex decking) and lush backyard overlooking the river valley and miles of walking/biking trails that the City of Petoskey has invested heavily in. Upstairs is quaint yet spacious, with a large primary bedroom with an interesting nook, perfect for home office use or as a cozy place to curl up with a book, plus two additional good-sized bedrooms, the second bath, and a couple of different views of the clear blue water of Lake Michigan that Petoskey is famous for.  So, whether you are a family looking to be close to schools and the downtown area, a retiree wanting your own space close to the hospital and amenities, or a Weekend Warrior looking for a convenient home base to take advantage of 4 seasons of Northern Michigan fun, 421 Wachtel Ave fills all of those needs and is ready for its next owner to start living the good life along the shores of Little Traverse Bay.  If you are going to invest in something, make sure it's in a premium location, and since they're not expanding the city limits, an in-town Petoskey House with a water view should set you up for success.
