Rare acreage opportunity just minutes from Traverse City offering an exceptional combination of development potential, equestrian amenities, and Northern Michigan lifestyle. Conveniently located just minutes from the corner of 3 Mile and Hammond Road and directly across from the protected 80-acre Pines Park Township Natural Area, this versatile property offers a beautiful setting with privacy, abundant wildlife, established trails, and room to bring a variety of visions to life. For buyers exploring investment or development opportunities, the property offers potential for up to five land splits (buyer to verify desired use, splits, and development possibilities with East Bay Township). Also included in the associated documents is a previous conceptual plan illustrating a 17-lot development. This concept was never submitted to the township for review or approval and is provided for reference only. Equestrian and hobby-farm buyers will appreciate two fenced animal pastures, a run-in shelter with small tack room, established trails, and ample open space for horses, animals, recreation, gardening, or additional improvements. Two 30-amp camper hookups, a new 14x36 Amish-built shed, and a 2020 Palomino Puma XLE Lite camper add even more versatility. For those envisioning a private estate, professionally designed plans for a 5-bedroom, 4-bath home are included, with a thoughtfully selected south-facing build site overlooking the pastures to take advantage of all-day sun and beautiful countryside views. A test well has also been drilled. Whether envisioned as a private equestrian estate, hobby farm, recreational retreat, investment property, or future development opportunity, this distinctive offering provides the space and flexibility to create something truly special—all within easy reach of Traverse City.
