This is a unique opportunity to own a stunning historic farmhouse in the heart of Leelanau County. Over 18 acres are graced by antique varietal apple trees, rolling hills, stunning gardens and a beautiful pond. The home boasts 9 bedrooms, wood floors and refinished original trim throughout. The homestead has been run as the Snowbird Bed and Breakfast for the past 34 years; and could continue to be used in the same capacity. It would also be an ideal single family home with endless potential! The original farm house and granary building would be great little guest houses if fixed up! A brand new septic is being installed, two furnaces have been replaced within the last 8 years and the barn has a newer metal roof. This property is a rare Leelanau County gem, just waiting for its lucky new owner!
