Property Description
Unobstructed views of Grand Traverse Bay with a phenomenal sandy beach just steps out of your door… this home is as close as you can get to the private water-frontage lifestyle without paying the private water-frontage price tag. The setting is unmatched, and the home is full of custom touches that are sure to please. Step inside and the vaulted ceilings & abundance of light set the tone immediately. Premium woods — rosewood, oak, cherry & walnut — run throughout, alongside in-floor radiant heat, a custom concrete countertop inlaid with Petoskey & Leland Blue stone, and backlit beach glass transom windows. A walk-in kitchen pantry & beverage fridge round out a layout built for entertaining. Recent updates by the current owners include an updated bathroom, new interior doors, freshly stained deck and fresh landscaping. Two sliding glass doors frame the dining and living areas, leading out to a wrap around deck.. the perfect place to watch the sunrise over the bay in the morning, or enjoy al fresco dining in the evening as the colors of dusk shift and dance out on the water. A 16x16' outbuilding with new garage door provides ample storage or can double as a workshop, and a carport covers vehicle parking. A whole-house generator delivers automatic backup power, and the metal roof means low-maintenance durability for years to come. Cherry Home Shores is one of the most amenity-rich neighborhoods in Leelanau County — multiple beach access points (800’+ of shared beach frontage), hiking trails, tennis & pickleball and a clubhouse. Whether you’re searching for a year-round home or a family cottage, this is a phenomenal option if you want the kind of views and beachfront proximity that typically come with a $1M+ price tag.
