About this home
Experience the timeless charm of Northern Michigan lakefront living with this inviting home offering 96 feet of private frontage on beautiful North Lake Leelanau. Tucked away at the end of a private road, this property is nestled on a wooded .64-acre parcel with a sandy lake bottom and private dock, providing an idyllic setting for swimming, boating, and making lasting summer memories. Originally built in 1958, the house is filled with warmth and character, featuring natural wood finishes, exposed rafters, vaulted wood ceilings, and a cozy wood-burning fireplace. The distinctive ceiling design was thoughtfully incorporated into the original construction to showcase the beauty of the woodwork, creating an inviting atmosphere reminiscent of classic Northern Michigan cottages. Original Douglas fir flooring remains in the living room (beneath carpeting) and the two original bedrooms. An addition in the mid-1980s expanded the home to include a spacious primary bedroom, bathroom, and expanded kitchen. Large windows and glass doors bring in natural light and offer beautiful views of the lake and surrounding landscape. Step outside to the spacious lakeside deck, perfect for outdoor dining, soaking up the sunshine, or simply enjoying the lazy days of summer. Additional conveniences include central air conditioning, natural gas heat, and a detached two-car garage. With three bedrooms and an appealing blend of original character and thoughtful additions, this North Lake Leelanau retreat offers the opportunity to enjoy the simple pleasures of waterfront living for generations to come. Please note: E Baxter Drive is a private dead-end road and does not provide through access to the adjacent E Ryans Way....
