Property Description
A truly one-of-a-kind Northern Michigan property, this remarkable 40-acre parcel offers a rare combination of history, natural beauty, privacy and extraordinary development potential. Surrounded on two sides by the Huron National Forest, the property enjoys a spectacular wooded setting with Comins Creek crossing the rear of the acreage before flowing into the renowned AuSable River, located approximately one mile to the south. Once home to the Michigan AuSable Valley Railroad, this property was originally developed as a popular tourist attraction where visitors boarded a miniature passenger train for an 18-minute scenic journey through the picturesque jack pine forest. While the train itself is no longer on the property, much of the fascinating railroad character remains through an exceptional collection of purpose-built structures. Overlooking the beautiful Comins Creek Valley is a 750-square-foot rustic home, built in 1960, two bedrooms and two baths. Its peaceful setting and elevated valley views make it an ideal owner's retreat, guest cottage or base for a recreational venture. Adding tremendous character to the property is a turn-of-the-century-style Victorian railroad station, constructed in 1994. Measuring approximately 12' x 48. The former engine house, also constructed in 1994, measures approximately 18' x 72' and incorporates numerous custom features reflecting the property's railroad heritage. A 24' x 40' freight house, built in 1998, features six custom doors and could readily serve as a four-car garage, workshop, equipment building or recreational storage facility. The largest structure is the substantial 32' x 106' office and warehouse building, constructed in 2003. The interior is finished with painted drywall has two separate heating and cooling systems. With approximately 40 acres, multiple buildings, creek frontage, National Forest bordering two sides and the AuSable River approximately one mile away, the possibilities here are exceptional.
