Property Description

Live connected to everything Traverse City has to offer while enjoying a surprisingly private setting of your own. This charming 2-bedroom home sits on a large, wooded corner lot just a block from East Bay Park Beach, with the TART Trail directly across the road and expanding trail connections creating even easier access toward East Bay Town Center, Boardman Lake and downtown Traverse City.-------------- Bike to the beach, head out for a morning walk, connect to miles of area trails or ride into town for shopping, dining and entertainment. Boardman Lake is just a few blocks away, and the new trail connections make this location even more appealing for anyone who wants to enjoy Traverse City without always getting in the car.-------------------- Inside, the home offers easy one-level living with a comfortable floor plan and a spacious mudroom/laundry area. Multiple decks extend the living space outdoors, while the wooded yard provides plenty of room to relax, entertain, garden or simply enjoy some privacy.------------- There's also a large covered carport plus a 20-foot storage container/shed with plenty of space for bikes, kayaks, lawn equipment and recreational gear.----- Year-round home, Northern Michigan getaway or an easy Traverse City retreat—this is a unique combination of a large private lot and outstanding access to the places and activities that make Traverse City such a great place to live.------ And for a little extra summer fun—a Supra Competition Ski Boat is included! ***Broker Ken Weaver 231-357-0821 is related to the sellers.***
