Overview

This 5.5-acre residential land parcel features a heavily wooded front portion with mature evergreens and open space toward the back. The setting combines tall pines that provide natural privacy with a spacious grassy clearing that can support a home or secondary getaway. The property’s mix of wooded area and usable clearing offers flexibility for how you plan the site layout and preserve outdoor space.

Located in Leelanau County and within the Glen Lake School District, the property is described as being just minutes from Empire, Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, Lake Michigan beaches, golf courses, hiking trails, and scenic drives along M-22. Traverse City is approximately 30 minutes away, providing additional access to dining, shopping, wineries, and year-round entertainment in the Grand Traverse region.

For buyers looking to build, the wooded-and-clearing configuration can support a tuck-in approach while keeping an area for outdoor living. The parcel’s balance of privacy and open space may appeal to purchasers seeking a quieter natural setting while still being positioned near major recreation and local amenities highlighted in the surrounding area.
