405 Park Avenue , Frankfort, MI 49635(Benzie County)

This unique half acre property in Frankfort's city limits offers a rare opportunity for privacy, income, and walkability in a historic beach town. With two year-round homes and a separate 2 car garage, this is the perfect place to host your Up North family vacations, plan your retirement home while funding your dream with short-term or long-term rental income, or live full-time in a small town with big city amenities. One block east is iconic M22 and Market Square Park, to the west is Paul Oliver Memorial hospital and a short walk to Lake Michigan beach access. Directly across the street is a hidden forest stage and a public walking trail area which hosts Shakespeare in the Park. From this property, you can take a sidewalk stroll downtown for drinks (and curling lessons!) at Stormcloud Brewing Company, dinner at Birch and Maple, the Garden Theater for a movie, and the famous Frankfort Beach to watch the surfers and enjoy the sunset. The Betsie Valley Trailway is a great way to explore the region on bikes, and when the snow falls, skiing at Crystal Mountain is a short 20 minute drive away. With vintage molding, large windows, two covered porches, a large, park-like yard with flowering trees, perennials, gigantic ostrich ferns, animal visitors, and even a producing cherry tree- you may never want to leave.
