MI Dream Home: Mid-century estate in Manistee sits on a hilltop

Enjoy living in a mid-century home in old town Manistee on a 3-acre hilltop with views of Lake Michigan against the sunset.

This classic estate, at 552 Harvard Lane, is complete with a number of modern upgrades in a park-like setting that features a landscape designed with multiple outdoor living spaces, including decks, patios and a sauna.

The well-maintained four-bedroom estate has 5 1/2 baths, a large bonus room on the third floor, a studio garage apartment with another bedroom and bath. There's also a partially finished basement.

The beach, restaurants and the Manistee light pier are all just a five-minute walk away.

Additional development is possible because the parcel can be divided into three lots, each with views of Lake Michigan. And, in case you've ever wanted a B&B, this could be the perfect place.

Priced at $650,000, the home is being offered by North Harbor Christie's International Real Estate in Petoskey. An open house for this property is set for Friday (Oct. 11) from 4-7 p.m.
