13342 N Forest Beach

Leelanau Township, MI 49670

Highly usable private Grand Traverse Bay frontage is increasingly difficult to replace, and this Cherry Home Shores property offers 120 feet of it: sandy shoreline, sandy bottom, clear water, walk-in swimming, and usable beach area for sitting, swimming, and enjoying the bay. Set across two Cherry Home Shores lots, the property offers rare frontage width and long-term ownership flexibility for a buyer who understands the value of private waterfront and is willing to take on a significant project. The existing 3-bedroom, 1-bath cottage is heated by wood stove only and may serve for simple cottage use while buyers evaluate renovation or rebuild options. The primary value is the land, frontage, shoreline usability, and future ownership opportunity rather than the current structure. Existing septic will need replacement; point-of-sale report, replacement estimate, and permit for replacing the existing system are available in associated documents. Buyer to verify all septic requirements, replacement costs, zoning, setbacks, well, association rules, township requirements, and all applicable approvals for renovation, rebuild, or future use. Ownership in Cherry Home Shores includes shared beaches, parks, trails, clubhouse, tennis courts, common areas, and lake privileges. Cherry Home Shores restricts short-term rentals. This is not simply a cottage purchase; it is an opportunity to create a long-term ownership experience around private Grand Traverse Bay frontage with shoreline usability that will likely matter long after the existing structure changes.
