A Lake House With Room for More Than Boats
A lakeside sunroom and a heated garage distinguish 5852 Keeney Dr in Six Lakes, Michigan, a 1960 ranch currently listed at $290,000.
The matching current MLS listing uses “Keeney Road” and identifies two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and 1,256 square feet.
The photographs show a low-profile house facing Lake Montcalm, an aluminum dock extending from the shoreline, and a covered walkway with exposed wooden supports.
The agent describes sandy frontage, while the current listing’s 0.42-acre figure conflicts with a 9,148-square-foot figure—approximately 0.21 acres—also displayed, making the included land an important point to confirm.
The listing describes a furnished home with water views from the sunroom, a main-level primary bedroom with a private bathroom and walk-in closet, and main-level laundry.
The detached tandem garage is recorded as four-car parking, although the description suggests capacity for four to six vehicles and includes heat and a wash area.
No specific renovation needs are disclosed in the reviewed description, and the condition of the roof, foundation, heating, well, and septic system remains unconfirmed.
Basement information also differs between sources, with Real Estate One recording a slab and Coldwell Banker marking a basement.
Buyers prioritizing waterfront access, a single-level layout, and substantial storage could find this combination appealing, provided inspections and a review of the property boundaries resolve the outstanding questions.
