Discover something truly different in the heart of the Keweenaw! This unique geodesic dome home sits on three lots along a quiet dead-end street, offering a distinctive living experience surrounded by the natural beauty of the Upper Peninsula. With trails, forests, and water nearby, this property is an opportunity to enjoy the peaceful setting and outdoor lifestyle that make the Keweenaw so special. Inside, soaring wood-paneled ceilings and skylights fill the main living area with natural light. The kitchen has warm wood cabinetry, a large center island with seating, and a dining area. The main level has a bedroom, a full bath, and a laundry room with direct backyard access. Upstairs are two more bedrooms and a full bath with a skylight. There’s also an open loft that overlooks the living room and works well as an office, study space, gaming area or workout spot. The finished lower level is a highlight. It’s a spacious studio-style living area with a 3/4 bath, a kitchenette with sink and refrigerator, a gas line already plumbed for a range, and a private entrance through the garage. It has been used as a short-term rental and long-term rental, a guest suite and a recreation room. A woodstove on this level is not currently in use. The private fenced backyard enters right on to Trail #3 (ATV/snowmobile) and the adjacent non-motorized trail, which makes it ideal for a rental or a trail lover’s home base. Out back you’ll find a brick patio, hot tub, raised garden beds, a play structure and an electrical hookup for a pool. There’s plenty of parking for trailers and vehicles. The attached two-car garage has an additional electrical panel and piping for an air compressor. The home has been well cared for, with Andersen windows and doors with screens and storm doors and a new roof in 2016, a gas forced-air furnace in 2019, and a water heater in 2021. It also has central air, central vacuum on all three levels, and a newer sump pump system with battery backup and an external above-ground pump. The home is about five miles from Michigan Tech, Houghton and Hancock, and roughly 15 minutes from Lake Superior. It’s just blocks from Portage Lake and the township park, which has a boat ramp, a swimming beach and a picnic area. The public school complex is within walking distance.
