This beautiful 5-acre vacant lot is ideally situated just one minute from downtown Northport via Third Street, and is conveniently located near the popular Braman Hill Recreation Area and the Nagonaba Trail System - it is an easy walk or ride to these nearby outdoor amenities. Just a moment's drive from the fabulous Peterson Park and local favorite, Christmas Cove, this offering is proximate to many desirable northern Leelanau locations. Located at the corner of Nelson Road and Bluebird Lane, the parcel lies across the road from a serene natural pond—home to native plants and wildlife, including the unmistakable calls of bullfrogs and local bird species. The subject property is partly cleared along Nelson Road and, for ease of access, this is an ideal spot to build a home. Here, the land is mostly level, gradually sloping upward as you move to the east. A gentle dip mid-parcel reveals a seasonal marsh that appears and recedes with the changing seasons. Beyond that, the terrain rises more steeply and is covered in mature pines and hardwoods, offering a secluded and elevated setting perfect for a cabin or forest hideaway. In all, this parcel offers a lovely blend of privacy and proximity, giving you space to spread out while staying close to the vibrancy of the village. Additional perks include underground electric service, light deed restrictions, and a practical road maintenance agreement (for Bluebird Lane) which together help safeguard your investment.
