About this home
Located in Howell Township within the Howell School District, this 33.26± acre Livingston County property delivers a rare combination of modern home construction, strategicaly developed wildlife habitat, and significant frontage along the Red Cedar River. Designed for both comfortable living and serious recreational use, this property stands out as a highly functional and well-equipped rural offering in southern Michigan.

A walk-in pantry offers ample storage, and stainless appliances from Frigidaire, Whirlpool, and LG are included. The main living area includes a propane fireplace, creating a warm and functional gathering space. The primary suite includes a walk-in tile shower, soaking tub, and double vanity, while the guest bathroom features a fiberglass tub and shower combination. Flooring throughout the home includes vinyl plank, tile, and carpet on the main level, with carpet and tile upstairs and a concrete basement.

Utilities include propane and electric service, along with Verizon internet providing approximately 90 Mbps download and 20 Mbps upload speeds.
The land has been extensively improved to support wildlife and recreational use. With approximately 2,400 feet of frontage along the Red Cedar River, the property benefits from a natural travel corridor that enhances deer movement and overall habitat diversity. Acres of switchgrass and food plots have been established, which equates to a quarter mile of switchgrass screening to support strategic access.
Additional habitat improvements include approximately 400 Norway spruce planted for long-term cover and screening, along with roughly 400 hybrid willows that enhance bedding areas and travel corridors. The property is set up for immediate hunting success with four elevated, heated blinds positioned in key locations. Access routes have been carefully planned and critiqued to allow hunting in multiple wind conditions while minimizing pressure on wildlife.
The property features over one mile of maintained trails, providing excellent access for ATV use, land management, and year-round recreation. A secluded river trail adds to the overall usability and enjoyment of the land.
A 0.35± acre pond provides additional recreational value and wildlife support. While not stocked, it holds fish naturally and attracts waterfowl and other wildlife. The property also offers opportunities for turkey, rabbit, squirrel, and waterfowl hunting, along with trapping potential for species such as coyote, raccoon, fox, muskrat, mink, and occasional beaver or otter. Seasonal morel mushrooms have also been found on the property, further adding to its recreational appeal.
Outdoor features include vinyl and brick siding, a 2019 asphalt roof, landscaped rock borders, a 6-foot firepit area, and a dedicated shooting lane.
Outbuildings are well-equipped and add significant functionality. The 30x50 pole barn includes LED lighting, a concrete floor, electric service, and a recently installed two-post automotive lift with updated concrete foundation in 2024. The 24x32 barn features an insulated loft and electric service, with 100-amp service to the barn and 60-amp service to the pole barn. Additional structures include a alpaca shack and the four elevated hunting blinds.
Conveniently located near Howell, with access to Lansing and Ann Arbor, this property offers a balance of privacy and accessibility. It is well-suited for buyers seeking a primary residence, recreational retreat, or a highly developed hunting property with immediate usability.
The current ownership highlights the exceptional wildlife activity and the ability to create lasting outdoor experiences. From the established hunting setup to the diverse habitat and river frontage, this property is designed to perform at a high level and provide long-term enjoyment....
