Experience the best of Leelanau living with this extraordinary 107-acre property featuring 500 feet of private frontage on the crystal-clear waters of Lake Leelanau. Rolling hills, ridge-line lake views, open meadows, hardwoods, evergreens, and farmland make this a truly one-of-a-kind offering just 15 minutes from downtown Traverse City. The landscape naturally lends itself to year-round outdoor adventure. In the winter months, the property transforms into a private retreat for sledding on your own hill, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing along established trails, and exploring by snowmobile. Ice fishing on the frozen lake becomes a favorite way to gather and take in the quiet beauty of the season. When the snow melts, the same rolling terrain and open spaces offer endless opportunities to hike, explore, and enjoy lakeside living at its finest. The 4-bed, 2.5-bath main residence beautifully blends classic up north charm with modern updates, featuring vaulted wood ceilings, inlaid wood floors, and a stone fireplace. Both the home and property were thoughtfully renovated in 2022, offering a fresh, move-in-ready experience. A Generac generator provides added peace of mind for comfortable year-round living. Evenings here are especially magical, with stunning sunsets that paint the sky over the lake, easily enjoyed from multiple vantage points across the property. For additional living space, a separate 1-bed, 1-bath chalet offers updated interiors and a four-car garage underneath, ideal for guests, a private retreat, or potential rental use. Additional structures include a 30x50 pole building for storage and two waterfront cabins, perfect as bunkhouses or convenient lakeside gear storage. With 3,700 feet of frontage along East Birch Point Road, a private dock, and a firepit for lakeside gatherings, this rare Leelanau County property offers an exceptional blend of beauty, privacy, versatility, and outdoor living in every season.
