Description

This 4 bed, 2 bath home with an oversized two car garage sits on a quiet, one acre corner lot adjacent to the TART Trail and is less than 10 minutes to downtown Traverse City. The 40x60 pole barn, with reinforced concrete floor, makes this home a must see. Take your boat and jet skis out of the barn and head down the road to Cedar Lake, Lake Leelanau or Harbor West to enjoy time on the lakes. After a day on the water, come home to relax and grill out on the back deck. Better yet, ride the bikes down...This 4 bed, 2 bath home with an oversized two car garage sits on a quiet, one acre corner lot adjacent to the TART Trail and is less than 10 minutes to downtown Traverse City.
