A Private Riverfront Retreat in the Heart of Leelanau County Nestled among the towering pines of Leelanau County and just 15 minutes from vibrant downtown Traverse City, this enchanting 18.41-acre property blends chalet-style charm with the serene beauty of Northern Michigan. Perched above the winding Cedar Run-Âťhome to thriving brown, rainbow, and brook trout-Âťthis 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath retreat boasts 1,940 feet of private riverfront, a tranquil pond, and scenic walking trails through majestic hardwoods and evergreens. A spacious deck and a heated, screened-in porch invite you to soak in breathtaking views year-round. Inside, soaring timber-lined ceilings and a vintage wood-burning fireplace create a warm, nostalgic atmosphere. The open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area offers generous space for gathering, while the lower level-Âťfeaturing daylight windows, a wood stove, a laundry room, and ample storage-Âťholds exciting potential for customization. Beyond the home, natures beauty unfolds. A weeping willow, birch trees, and pines frame the established garden, leading to the private spring fed pond and a 24x20 pole barn with a workbench and abundant storage for tools, outdoor gear, or creative projects. Evergreens line the driveway, ensuring privacy, yet charming villages, scenic beaches, and endless outdoor adventures are just a short drive away. Whether you dream of peaceful mornings by the river, afternoons exploring Leelanaus hidden gems, or evenings gathered around the fire, this exceptional property offers an unmatched opportunity to embrace the magic of Northern Michigan. Dont miss this rare retreat-Âťschedule your showing today!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
