JACKSON COUNTY, MI – What was once the summer home of a Jackson wheelwright is now a luxury home on the shores of Lake Clark in southeast Jackson County that’s listed for sale for $1.639 million.
The home at 1878 Q Lane is a 5,300-square-foot, five-bedroom, 5.5-bathroom home built by Jackson businessman Clarence Hayes in 1899. One of the first homes built on the spring-fed lake, the cabin occupies a prime location on the shallow south end of the lake.

The cabin’s original log interior and wooden railings have been preserved in the two-story family room, while a newly added billiards room greets guests with a 360-degree mezzanine as they enter the foyer.
A lower level bedroom suite offers stair-free living convenience for family and guests, while up to six additional bedrooms can be located upstairs.
What was once the front porch of an 1899 cabin is now an enclosed living room with wood paneling, a fieldstone bar and views of the patio and lake.
The 0.6 acre lot has 100 feet of lake frontage and an 80-foot pier, allowing the owner to moor a small pontoon or large yacht on the all-sports lake.
This home also comes with a 4-car garage with separate door that can accommodate a trailer or boat up to 30 ft. Recent updates include a brand new HVAC system, recently redone concrete garage, and a newly re-roofed roof.
The home at 1878 Q Lane is listed for sale for $1,639,000 by real estate agent Jennifer Chmielewski of ERA Reardon Realty.
