Rare opportunity to own a private waterfront parcel with nearly 2 acres and 100 feet of waterfront on Big Shag Lake(Mitchell). The lot is wooded providing screening from neighbors with mature maples, hemlocks and birch. Mitchell Bay provides the best of both worlds, access to the main lake through the channel and the peacefulness of the Bay where loons and ducks make their homes. Building Site & waterfront are cleared, driveway in and electric easement runs thru the parcel. Lots of room for an outbuilding! ATV/snowmobile trails just down the road next to the UP North Lodge! Dock already in waiting for your water toys and fishermen to catch a few bass, pike, blue gills and perch. Taxes will change with sale. Seller is a licensed associate broker in the state of MIchigan.
