Set along the shores of a peaceful 17-acre lake with no public access, this special property offers a wonderful sense of privacy and tranquility. Enjoy beautiful lake views from inside and out, along with your own aluminum dock and private boat launch area right on the property-perfect for fishing, kayaking, swimming or simply relaxing by the water. Inside, large windows and a sliding glass door fill the home with natural light while showcasing views of the lake and surrounding woods. The home has been extensively and creatively updated, including an updated kitchen and baths, while still maintaining the warmth and character that make it truly one of a kind. Thoughtful and whimsical touches are found throughout the home, including a fun indoor swing, a cozy reading nook tucked beneath the stairs, and an adorable former closet creatively transformed into built-in bunk beds with custom mattresses-a favorite little hideaway for kids and overnight guests. A basement with its own exterior entrance provides convenient additional storage. Numerous improvements have already been completed, including new siding and windows in 2018, natural gas, a newer furnace and a new water heater. Whether you're looking for a year-round lakefront home or a peaceful Northern Michigan getaway, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, charm, mature woods and waterfront living-all on your own little corner of the lake. ## Location - **Address:** 5500 Seneca Trail, Gaylord, MI 49735 - **County:** Otsego - **Coordinates:** 44.951293, -84.630273 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=44.951293,-84.630273 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** JEFF KERMATH - **Brokerage:** KERMATH REALTY LLC - **Broker Phone:** 7346494903 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/5500-Seneca-Trl_Gaylord_MI_49735_M30086-29104?f=listhub&s=TAAR&m=1951603&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f3979471866r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f396728970r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f3241789256r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f897789266r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f265598240r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f4242744295r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f347850471r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f2473993936r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f3377239237r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f3172761359r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f2794488385r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f343402507r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f2839580087r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f2327998969r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f901597015r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f361109529r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f3920787028r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f2312273781r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f1282753199r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f3268147995r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f906522193r.jpg) ![5500 Seneca Trail - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/f340112e0720a6ce9fb0acf5af138f7al-f3174520554r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 1951603 | **Updated:** 2026-10-28 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Northern Great Lakes Realtors MLS.
