Welcome to River Ridge, a fabulous riverfront property in Newaygo County, just 45 minutes from Grand Rapids! Whether you are looking for your next home, recreational getaway, or dreaming of owning a vacation rental or fishing lodge, River Ridge fits the bill! Start with a 7+ acre secluded parcel with 375' of Muskegon River frontage along one of the most desirable stretches of the river, 2 miles upstream from Newaygo. Add a spacious 4-5 bedroom log home with over 3,000 sq. ft of living space PLUS a 3-bedroom 1,300 sq. ft. apartment above the 3-stall garage, and the opportunities are endless. The main house features welcoming front porch, a great room with 2-story ceilings and dramatic stone fireplace; large updated kitchen with loads of cabinets, stainless appliances, granite counters and and island plus eating area, 2 rooms that can flex as office, dining room, or bedrooms plus half bath and mud room. New carpet in the great room and main floor bedroom. Up is a large primary ensuite bedroom with walk-in closet and updated bath with convenient laundry, 2 additional bedrooms, full bath and loft. Downstairs is a recreational area and more living/sleeping quarters with daylight window and ample storage. Outside you'll enjoy the extensive backyard decking and wooded views. The 3-bedroom apartment above the garage has a separate entrance, kitchen, living room, full bath plus laundry, deck, and HVAC so guests are fully independent of the main house. Fresh paint thoughout the apartment plus new carpet on the stairs and in the three bedrooms. Head down the stairs to the river and take in the views from the charming riverside gazebo or cast your line into the mighty Muskegon to enjoy world-class fishing. This property includes a 40X60 2,400 sq.ft. pole barn, with 2 garage doors, the largest of which is 14 feet tall and 12 feet wide to fit any size RV or vehicle, plus an outdoor wood-burner to lower home heating costs, whole house generator, plus storage shed. Private wooded setting that feels miles away but is only 5 minutes to downtown Newaygo for shopping, dining, and more. Countless year-round recreational amenities surround River Ridge, including the Manistee National Forest, all-sports lakes including 1,380-acre Croton Pond, the 34+ mile Dragon Trail, and more.
