This gently sloping 5-acre vacant parcel has shared access to 635 feet of the best sand frontage on East Grand Traverse Bay. Walk nature trails or ride a golf cart to the shore, and if you like you can walk north a mile and a half on pristine sand beaches protected from development by a Conservation Easement or State of Michigan ownership! Additional conservation easements and state lands protect the long and lovely sunrise views from the property. Farmed fields extend to the north and east nearly as far as the eye can see. Your access to nearby Orchard Shores tennis and pickleball courts is included. Horses and a pole barn for stalls, storage, or other agricultural purposes are allowed by right under the zoning. Natural gas is to the property, which fronts on US-31. This picture-perfect Grand Traverse land, complete with a new, gated access road, is four miles from Elk Rapids shopping, restaurants, harbor, and golf; four miles from the Grand Traverse Resort complex, six miles from Flintfields Horse Park, and twelve miles from downtown Traverse City. If this sounds like the perfect combination of location and benefits for your new home, come see it now!
