Charming Riverside Retreat on the Little Manistee River – A Unique Blend of Character and Modern Comfort. Nestled in the heart of Luther, this one-of-a-kind home offers 90 feet of serene frontage along the Little Manistee River. Brimming with character and timeless charm, the residence has been tastefully updated to blend rustic warmth with modern functionality. The heart of the home is a beautifully remodeled kitchen, showcasing rich hickory cabinetry, stylish open shelving, and a spacious peninsula that comfortably seats four to five—ideal for casual dining or entertaining. Expansive windows line the side and rear of the home, flooding the open-concept living space with natural light while offering panoramic views of the tranquil river. This thoughtfully designed home includes three bedrooms—one currently serving as a bright and inspiring art studio—and a custom-designed bathroom featuring a walk-in tiled shower. Outside, you’ll find lush, mature perennials that create a peaceful landscape, and just across the river, a greenhouse, chicken coop, rabbit hutch, and storage shed form the foundation of a true hobby farm. The property is partially fenced, with a dedicated fenced-in area perfect for pets. An oversized one-car garage includes an additional stall—ideal for recreational vehicles, workshop space, or extra storage. Whether you're seeking a peaceful year-round residence or a charming Up North getaway, this riverside gem offers a rare opportunity to live close to nature with all the comforts of home.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
