BACK ON MARKET! The English Gentleman Realtor is delighted to bring to market a home that has been in one family for 50 years. Just 15 min (9.7 miles) drive from Traverse City, this beautiful cottage, situated at the southern end of the Lake, is an exceptional opportunity to be close to the town, yet still, relax and decompress. With just over 100ft of waterfront facing due north, it doesn't take one long to imagine oneself enjoying coffee on the back porch as you watch the sunrise, or relaxing in the water with toes gripping the sandy bottom of the lake, watching a sunset. With protected state land at the end of the private road, its a short, lazy drift along the lake shore to the mouth of Victoria Creek and entry to the Cedar River Preserve. In addition to the attached oversized garage, a separate 2 car garage has a large loft space, perfect for storage, or perhaps some fun filled sleepovers. This property was built for making memories. The Lake Leelanau Lake Association (LLLA) recently received a substantial donation of $5 million to meet the costs of preventing and controlling invasive aquatic species in the lake for years to come. There is also a Friends of Lake Leelanau foundation. https://www.leelanauticker.com/news/unexpected-gift-from-couple-with-ties-to-lake-leelanau-ends-the-pursuit-of-lake-preservation-board/
