About 2854 School Road
**OPEN HOUSE SATURDAY OCT. 3RD FROM 10AM-NOON. Perched on a hill with sweeping countryside views, this rare 20-acre farm is tucked into the picturesque Resort Township of Petoskey — just minutes from the charming Gaslight District and close to Walloon Lake. It's a rare blend of country serenity and in-town convenience. Start a vineyard, bring your horses, enjoy farm life and the hilltop light of the dawn and dusk. The property spans 20 rolling acres, including 7 acres of lush pasture shaded by a grand knotty boxelder tree, with 9 acres fully fenced overall. A 28-foot covered deck on the east side overlooks a large meadow framed by maples and pines, while a 28-foot uncovered deck on the south side takes in rolling hayfields and the garden — a perfect spot for stargazing on clear Northern Michigan nights. Built in 2017, the Amish-built home features 17-foot cathedral ceilings with red pine and pine spruce rafters. The open-concept main floor is finished with Bruce hardwood flooring. There are no appliances in the kitchen. The main bathroom offers a large soaker tub and newly installed smart-tile flooring. Needs your TLC, bring it... if you have it! The lower level expands the living space with a possible second kitchen, a bedroom, a full bathroom with a walk-in shower, and a mechanical room with ample storage — ideal for multigenerational living or guest quarters. Outbuildings round out the property's versatility: a 30x40 pole barn, a 10x16 fully insulated and wired, yellow chicken coop. Rustic charm meets modern comfort in this beautifully maintained farm — a rare offering for livestock, agriculture, or simply the acreage lifestyle in one of Northern Michigan's most sought-after locations.
