About this home
Welcome to 8839 Petz Road in Imlay City - a rare opportunity to own a fully fenced 51-acre organic farm just 20 minutes from the heart of Metamora's equestrian community. This property isn't just acreage - it's infrastructure. The entire farm is enclosed with treated posts, high-tensile woven wire and hot wire top, making it truly horse-ready. Multiple barns with water hydrants, a large utility barn, workshop, chicken coop, and converted granary office create a fully operational setup for equestrian use, hobby farming, or livestock. Forty acres of hay fields. Three wooded acres of mature silver maple for syrup production. Six acres preserved for wildlife habitat. Wild apple and pear trees scattered throughout. Gated entrance. Privacy on three sides. The 2,300+ sq ft renovated farmhouse blends historic character with thoughtful modern updates. Reclaimed barn wood accents, original beams, refinished hardwood flooring (2025), wide plank heart pine floors repurposed from the on-site granary, and a wood-burning stove create warmth and authenticity throughout. Recent updates include: -Cedar shake siding (2020) -New roof with ridge vents (2023) -22kw Generac whole-house generator (2020) -Repaired stone foundation and footings (2025) -Interior and exterior paint (2025) -New appliances, hybrid hot water heater, reverse osmosis system -Blink security cameras included This is where rural refinement meets real function.

Property taxes for a new owner
The current owner pays about $1,857 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $10,124 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 25.22 mills for Imlay Twp and Capac 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.
