About This Home

Set on a breathtaking 21+ acre parcel in the heart of Leelanau County, this to-be-built offering combines exceptional land with a thoughtfully designed custom home by Cherry Ridge Builders. With distant views of Northport Bay to the east and Lake Michigan to the west, this rare property offers a unique opportunity to create a private estate in one of Northern Michigan’s most sought-after regions. The proposed home is a beautifully designed ranch-style residence featuring 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, including a fully finished walkout lower level. The main floor offers a functional, open-concept layout ideal for both everyday living and entertaining, highlighted by a spacious great room with a cozy fireplace that flows seamlessly into a well-appointed kitchen with an oversized island and walk-in pantry. The primary suite and secondary bedroom are thoughtfully positioned on opposite sides of the home for privacy, each with its own ensuite bath and generous walk-in closet. The finished lower level expands the living space with two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and flexible areas perfect for a family room, guests, or recreation. An attached 3-car garage and a covered deck provide both convenience and the perfect setting to take in the surrounding natural beauty. Situated on one of the highest elevations in the county, the property is ideal for a variety of uses, from a private estate to vineyards, orchards, or hobby farming. Enjoy peaceful rural living while remaining just minutes from the charming villages of Northport, Omena, Leland, and Suttons Bay. A rare opportunity to build new on one of the last remaining parcels of this size in the county—where natural beauty, privacy, and modern comfort come together seamlessly.
