Historic Michigan Farmstead with 22.50 Acres Atlanta MI

Centennial Farm Charm on 22.5 Scenic Acres in Michigan’s Elk Capital

Step back in time and discover the charm of this rare Michigan Centennial Farm, lovingly owned by the same family for more than 100 years! Set on 22.14 scenic acres between Johannesburg and Atlanta, the Elk Capital of Michigan, this remarkable property features a beautiful 1935 stone farmhouse, offering character and craftsmanship rarely found today. From the inviting covered porch, enjoy peaceful countryside views or explore the rolling acreage, offering endless possibilities for recreation, hobby farming, hunting, or simply enjoying the beauty of Northern Michigan. Inside, you’ll find timeless details, including original hardwood floors, beautiful woodwork, and classic lathe-and-plaster walls that showcase the home’s historic character.

Important updates provide peace of mind, including a new furnace (2024), new windows (2023), and a new septic system and drain field (2019). Unlike many historic homes, this property features poured foundation walls rather than a traditional Michigan basement.

With some updates and personal touches, it will shine, but its timeless stone construction, original character, and rich family history provide a remarkable foundation. With important improvements already completed, you can build on its existing charm and create a home that reflects your own style while preserving a special piece of Northern Michigan history.

While this historic farmhouse has seen important updates, it is also a bit of a fixer-upper, offering an opportunity for the next owner to bring their vision, personal touches, and updates to make it their own. With 22.14 acres to enjoy, the possibilities are as expansive as the property itself!

Conveniently located just minutes from public access to Lake 15 and surrounded by the natural beauty of Northern Michigan, this one-of-a-kind property offers a rare blend of history, privacy, and potential. The seller is retaining mineral rights.

This is an opportunity you won’t want to miss!

Located just minutes from Atlanta, a destination famous for elk viewing, hunting, fishing, and outdoor recreation, you’ll enjoy access to approximately 1,000 square miles of state land, countless lakes, blue-ribbon trout streams, ORV trails, snowmobile routes, and year-round adventure. Explore the nearby Thunder Bay River, Fletcher Floodwaters, and numerous area lakes, including Clear Lake, Crooked Lake, Tomahawk Lake, Rush Lake, and more. From kayaking and fishing to hunting and wildlife viewing, the opportunities are endless.

Properties with this combination of history, acreage, character, and location rarely become available. Discover the charm and legacy of this extraordinary Centennial Farm and create memories for generations to come.
