1449 N South Long Lake Rd, Traverse City, MI 49685

One-of-a-kind Long Lake setting with some of the best frontage on the lake! Completely invisible from the road for the ultimate in privacy, a lighted circular drive leads through natural woods to this stunning contemporary home with pleasing lines and generously-sized spaces. Highlights include newer wood floors, a main-level primary suite with a private bath, walk-in closet, and slider doors to the back deck, a fireplace in the living room that is suitable for gas or wood use, granite counters and a breakfast bar in the kitchen, a second main level bedroom (currently used as a den), and a main level laundry room. Upstairs you'll find two more bedrooms, a full bath, and an accessory room perfect for many uses. The walkout level is finished with a family room, a 3/4 bath with a sauna (complete with a shower head IN the sauna!) a workshop, and storage room. Designed to maximize enjoyment of the waterfront, the rear of the home features generous windows to provide wide water views, the multi-level decking is ideal for entertaining (and features a power awning), and there are minimal steps to the waterfront with a rippled hard-sand bottom. The home sits 35' from the water, within the current waterfront setbacks and is grandfathered in - a newer home would never offer this kind of proximity to the gorgeous views of the water. The westerly exposure hosts sunset and island views, while the property's position on the lake provides both a protected cove and easy access to the wide water. Additional features include an oversized 2-car attached garage, an additional detached 4-car heated garage, central air conditioning, underground sprinklers, and a newer roof. This property is the complete package! Welcome to lake life!
