Discover your own corner of paradise in Northern Leelanau County. This 27.26 acre parcel in Leelanau Township is tucked away on a quiet road where most of the few houses are situated on 15 acres or more. With mixed hard and soft woods throughout the property, and a grove of black walnuts, a year-round stream running through it and partial views of Bass Lake, this property offers silence, wildness, birdsong and abundant stars at night; and endless opportunities. This land has been approved by The Leelanau Conservancy as eligible for a conservation easement and is surrounded on two sides by protected, privately owned land. Ideal for a dream home, hunting, hobby farm or winery (with excellent soil and south facing slopes), and as an investment for your heirs, there are few other pieces in Leelanau County that can rival the peace and beauty of Swede Road. Just four miles from the village of Northport, 11 from Suttons Bay, 14 from Leland and 45 from Traverse City, this secluded piece is also close to numerous beaches, wineries and conservation public areas and state parks. Privacy and seclusion, but with accessibility to cultural activities, numerous local farms and producers, cafes and restaurants, this 27 acre parcel is a rare find that doesn’t appear too often anymore in Leelanau County.
