VACANT WATERFRONT BUILDING SITES

With the low inventory that our local market has been experiencing in recent months, the idea of building your waterfront dream home exactly as you picture it is becoming a viable solution to your search for Northern Michigan waterfront homes.  Over the last 18 months we have seen a shift and the better nicer lots are sometimes selling very quickly.  The best time of the year to walk and view vacant land is either in the early Spring or late Fall when the understory and trees are not in bloom.  You can get a much better visual of the topography and how your home could be situated on the property.  I would like to suggest some great direct waterfront vacant properties at great prices.


MLS#1828192  Arbutus Lake, Traverse City. 110 feet private frontage and 1/2 acre parcel.  Located on lake #1 (quiet lake) and  adjoining channel to lake #2 (all sports) you get to enjoy the best of both worlds.  $164,900.



MLS#1816020  Green Lake, Antrim County. 600 ft. of private frontage with 7.2 acres of privacy.  Located in Three Lakes Club in Antrim County - a gated community of  high end homes and extraordinary privacy and beauty.  $79,900.



MLS#1827287 Squaw Lake, Blue Lake Township, Kalkaska County.  165 ft. of private frontage and 3/4 of an acre on quiet clean clear lake with no public access and awesome new homes being built.  $49,900.


MLS#1821648   Lake Gitchegumee, Buckley. 4 on water direct private frontage and 4 off water shared frontage building sites.  Quiet area short drive south of Traverse City.  $24,900 and $11,900 respectively.
