About this home
Room to ride, room to roam, and a rail-trail along the back line. This country ranch sits on approximately 11.5 acres in Kenockee Township with open pasture, mature shade trees, and the Wadhams to Avoca Trail running along the property's western boundary. The center-aisle horse barn is set up and ready to use with stalls, a tack room, a storage/feed room, and a covered run-in that opens to a fenced paddock. Inside the 1,140 sq ft single-story home, the kitchen and living room flow together around a freestanding wood stove on a tile hearth. The kitchen features espresso-stained cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a mosaic tile backsplash, and a center island with seating, with hardwood floors carrying into the living room. 2 bedrooms, a full bath, and a tiled laundry/mudroom with utility sink, counter space, and built-in cabinets complete the home. A 38-foot covered front porch runs the full length of the house, and the attached 42x30 three-door garage adds 1,260 sq ft with a built-in bar corner for gatherings, toys, and tools. Circular gravel drive, fire pit, and a mown path leading out to the back acreage.

How it compares in Avoca
Over the last 90 days, 8 homes sold in Avoca for a median of $310,000, about $186 per square foot, and the typical one went under contract in 55 days.

Size, condition, updates and the exact street all move the number, so treat this as context. See recent Avoca sales or ask us for the comparable sales on this one.
Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $2,228 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $4,377 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 28.99 mills for Kenockee Twp and Yale schools, plus the 1% administration fee. Michigan resets a home's taxable value the year after it sells, so the seller's bill isn't a good number to budget with. See the math.
