Truly small-town living close to vibrant Lexington and quaint Port Sanilac! No water or sewer assessments, low taxes, close to the Great Lake of Huron! This 1968-built ranch has been meticulously maintained over the decades with equally maintained pole barn and extra garage in the over-an-acre parcel right in the heart of Applegate. Outdoors, the covered patio and very large yard with blooming perennials and trees will welcome you for the peace you are seeking. Inside, the semi-finished basement allows for recreation, storage, work space, or exercise area. The main level has a large living room ready for many small or large gatherings. The three bedrooms are located for privacy and the laundry room/lav is conveniently located off the kitchen. The attached 2-car garage allows for covered access from car to house year-round. The additional garage and 30'x40' pole barn must be seen to truly appreciate by craftsmen of all kinds - wood-working, automotive, or even the metal-artisan! The natural gas Generac guarantees power year-round. The walls are solid hand-plastered with practically no nicks or marring! That's how well this home has been cared for!
