Offers due Thursday, May 29th at noon. The most gorgeous beach in northern Michigan! The Sand Castle home is available! A beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 2-bath ranch home set on 100 feet of private Lake Michigan frontage in the peaceful enclave of Cathead Bay. This rare opportunity offers direct access to one of northern Michigans most pristine sandy beaches-truly a hidden gem on the tip of the Leelanau Peninsula. The home sits on 0.70 acres surrounded by natural beauty, just minutes from the Grand Traverse Lighthouse and the expansive Leelanau State Park. Recently remodeled in 2023, the home is turnkey and ready to enjoy. Inside, you'll find an inviting layout with an island kitchen, wood-burning fireplace, and bay windows that bring in stunning views of the lake and dunes. The spacious deck is ideal for relaxing or entertaining while taking in unforgettable sunsets. The main home includes three bedrooms and two full bathrooms, including a primary suite with a large soaking tub and shower. A detached bunkhouse adds additional sleeping space, with a new mini-split air conditioning unit installed for comfort-perfect for guests or kids, though it does not have a bathroom. With a peaceful setting just 15 minutes from downtown Northport, this home blends comfort, seclusion, and the best of northern Michigan living. Whether youre looking to enjoy the shoreline, explore the state park dunes, or visit nearby towns like Leland, Suttons Bay, and Traverse City, this property offers the perfect lakefront escape.
