3 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 1947298 MLS ⋅ N/A BLDG.

Wonderful south-shore Little Traverse Lake cottage on 57 feet of sandy frontage. Though the 3 bedroom, 1.5 bath cottage dates to a bygone era of wooden boats and dirt roads, it has been thoughtfully updated and lovingly maintained and sits on a more modern foundation, having been moved to its present location in the 1990s. The large deck, lakeside lawn with a sandy beach area and fire pit, offer ample room for gathering. The property is centrally located between Leland and Glen Arbor, making accessible so many of Leelanau's attractions, Lake Michigan beaches, hiking trails and it's only a stone's throw from the beloved Market 22 and its wonderful pizza, sandwiches and weekend brunch. In addition to being a family retreat for the owners the past 20 years, it has a solid rental history with many long-time returning guests.
