The serenity of nature meets the art of thoughtful design. Step into the laid-back elegance of 1970 N South Long Lake Road, a meticulously updated ranch tucked into the whispering woodlands of Traverse City’s coveted west side. With curated finishes and warm, natural textures, where each space feels both grounded and elevated. The main level’s 1,224 square feet have been beautifully reimagined (2018) with rich wood floors and plush carpeting underfoot. The airy, open living spaces lead to a sunlit kitchen and spill seamlessly onto a 26 x 10 wood deck shaded by mature hardwoods and soft pines; your own forested sanctuary, fully fenced for privacy and peace of mind. The primary suite is a restful retreat, complete with a tiled ¾ en suite bath and custom-built closet shelving. Two additional bedrooms share a chic, tiled full bath that feels both polished and practical. Downstairs, 451 square feet of newly finished living space (2025) is grounded with a vapor-barrier Dricore tile subfloor and 2x4 framed walls; ideal for a lounge, studio, or playroom. An additional 773 square feet of unfinished basement offers abundant storage or future potential. Perfectly positioned between the cultural charm of downtown Traverse City and the artistic soul of Interlochen, this home is a haven for those who crave connection; to both nature and community. Whether you’re sipping morning coffee beneath the trees or enjoying a quiet evening indoors, 1970 N South Long Lake Road delivers the easy sophistication of a well-lived life.
