Embrace the charm of A-frame living with this unique home nestled among the trees near Interlochen Arts Academy. With several Duck Lake access points just down the road, you’ll enjoy the best of Up North living in a private wooded setting. Though it has the feel of a cozy cottage, this property has been a year-round home for many years. The open design includes a lofted bedroom and soaring ceilings that showcase the classic A-frame character. Recent updates provide peace of mind, including a new roof, flooring, hot water heater, and kitchen sink/faucet, along with a recently serviced wall furnace. A bonus mini A-frame with electricity offers flexible use as storage, a studio, or a creative retreat. The property spans three lots, giving you space to expand with additional storage buildings, gardens, or other possibilities. Surrounded by trees, the home offers a quiet and sheltered atmosphere, perfect for those who value privacy and a true Up North retreat. Located just minutes from Interlochen and a short drive to Traverse City, this is an ideal year-round residence, seasonal getaway, or a convenient place for families with ties to Interlochen Arts Academy. NOTE: OFFER DEADLINE 8/31/25 AT 5 PM.
