If you’re searching for the perfect Leelanau County property, and are looking for a private, wooded setting, a mature forest with towering white pines, hemlocks, and hardwoods, and… a stream/creek element, this could be it! This lovely parcel is just over 3 acres, with most of it on the west side of meandering, Shetland Creek. A part of a tributary that flows to Lake Michigan by way of Lime Lake, Little Traverse Lake, and eventually Shalda Creek, at nearby Good Harbor Bay. This parcel is at the end of a private lane that services Micheal’s Woods, a small enclave, of less than a dozen homesites, with just a few homes built so far. You could be the next! Those that appreciate nature will understand the sensible, yet protective guidelines for maintaining a protective buffer to the stream, to maintain the water quality and wildlife habitat, but still provide reasonable private access. Minimum 1500 Sq. Ft. for a one story home, 1000 Sq. Ft. on the main level of a 1 1/2 or 2 story dwelling, attached garage, with an additional storage shed possible too (140 Sq. Ft.). The seller has recently engaged a local tree service to tidy up some wind fallen trees to partially identify the upland, slightly elevated building area. Located in between Glen Arbor and Leland, you’re close to lakes, hiking and biking on the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail, wineries, and the things you love about Leelanau. You’ll want to bring your builder, architect and dreams to explore the possibilities when you tour this gorgeous site!
