The Leelanau County cottage you've been waiting for! Located in the heart of the county, this charming and cheery home sits on 4.7 acres and serves as the perfect jumping-off point for exploring the best wineries, beaches & trails of Leelanau. Public access to North Lake Leelanau is under a mile away (Schneider Beach) and Van's Beach on Lake Michigan in Leland is just 7 minutes away. Return home after a day spent exploring to share a meal cooked in the spacious kitchen, cozy up by the gas fireplace or enjoy a bonfire and s'mores around the fire pit in the backyard, surrounded by towering trees (and a mature apple tree!). Updates since December 2023 include a new furnace, completely new septic system, new water heater, gas fireplace and interior paint. Other recent updates include a kitchen renovation and new floors in 2020 and central A/C in 2022. Between the attached two car garage, backyard storage shed and 600 SQFT unfinished basement, you'll have plenty of room for storing bikes, kayaks and other toys. Home has been used as a short term rental - a nice option for offsetting ownership costs when you're not using it yourself. Home sold fully-furnished with full price offer, making this a turnkey offering! Show up and enjoy.
