Ranch home on 4 acres in Leelanau County! Enjoy this incredibly serene property located on a quiet road that has very little traffic just off from M-72 West. The parcel is mostly level, high & dry, and receives plenty of sunshine. There is a gorgeous border of mature blue spruce to the north, flowering pear to the east, and a mix of evergreens and hardwoods to the west and south. Entertain in style on the west-facing deck that opens onto a spacious backyard with established landscaping, and plenty of space for large gardens. There is a superb workshop or art studio building and a cute garden shed for extra storage. The interior features an open-concept main level, built-in bookcases, and an island kitchen with plenty of storage and a sit-down bar. A finished walkout lower level has a comfortable family room and a third bedroom which could also be a nice home office. Half way between Traverse City & the quaint Village of Empire for easy trips to beaches, trails, parks, lakes, shopping, and wineries.
