Property Description
A rare 5.5+ acre riverfront property on the Rapid River, offering nearly 1,000 feet of frontage along one of Northern Michigan’s premier trout streams, known for Brook, Brown, Rainbow, and Steelhead fishing. Comprised of two parcels, this property provides exceptional flexibility, whether used as a private retreat or developed into a multi-home family compound. The property includes an inviting 860 sq. ft. rustic log cabin that is move-in ready and full of character. Features include a cozy wood stove, skylights that fill the interior with natural light, and a screened porch overlooking the river - ideal for enjoying the setting while planning future improvements or expansion. Ideally located just minutes from Torch Lake and the Village of Alden, and approximately 30 minutes from Traverse City, the property offers a rare combination of extensive river frontage, usable acreage, and convenient access to Northern Michigan’s most desirable amenities. This is a unique opportunity to establish a lasting family legacy on one of the region’s most sought-after rivers.
