Tucked well off the road on nearly 5 wooded acres in Fruitland Township, 3995 Jay Road offers the kind of privacy, space and versatility that is increasingly hard to find this close to Lake Michigan. Just a short drive or bike ride from the lakeshore, the property has a peaceful, secluded feel while still being close to Whitehall, Montague and everything the White Lake area has to offer. The approximately 2,400 square foot home features three bedrooms, two full baths, multiple living areas, a fireplace, full basement and both front and rear outdoor living spaces. Outside is where this property really stands apart. The 40 x 50 insulated pole barn features a cement floor, metal roof, 14 foot ceilings and 12.5 foot overhead doors, offering excellent space for a workshop, equipment, recreational toys or storage. A separate 24 x 32 stable includes multiple rubber matted stalls and a hayloft, while fenced pasture, a 12 x 16 shelter and additional open areas create a great setup for horses, livestock or your own small homestead. Trails wind through the mature woods, with garden areas, established landscaping and a fire pit area adding even more to the setting. Enjoy nearby Lake Michigan beaches, White Lake boating and fishing, golf, bike trails and the shops, restaurants and recreation of the Whitehall and Montague area, with Muskegon about 20 minutes away and Grand Rapids approximately an hour away. Whether you are looking for room for animals, serious workshop space, a private retreat or simply a property with room to spread out and make your own, this one offers a combination of location, acreage and improvements that is tough to replicate.
