What
Classic cottage living on picturesque South Waukazoo in the serene Village of Northport.
Two homes on 1.24 acres with 132′ of frontage along the bay for swimming and boating—in a grand setting steps from village amenities. Reminiscent of a bygone era where people walked to town, visited with neighbors and took in the fresh air, beautiful water and the natural beauty of Leelanau, here you even have a private ring side seat for the famous 4th of July fireworks.
The upscale 2-bedroom, 2-bath Main House that sits on a rise, has a beautiful open kitchen and living area with a wraparound deck overlooking a lush landscape and magnificent views of the bay. The master bedroom has a balcony with a dramatic view.
A fabulous patio lies between the Main House and the Stone Cottage (circa 1870), a charming gem with 1144 sf; main level kitchen, dining and half bath, and a spacious upper level bedroom and full bath. The lower walk out level is a finished gathering area and bedroom. There’s a 364 sf shed with a 168 sf bunk room. A long list of improvements includes an addition to the Main house in 2005, extensive landscaping, and a new roof on the Stone cottage in 2011. Zoned commercial residential.
Main House has forced air and AC. Stone Cottage has a hot water boiler. Sewer assessments have been paid; billed at 1.5 REU’s. Generator operates both homes. Numerous improvements.
Where
