1686 Zimmerman Rd Honor, MI 49640

Enjoy nature and all its beauty on this unique 235 +/- acre wooded recreational parcel that features a pond and stream in a peaceful stretch of Benzie County, only 20 minutes from Crystal Mountain and 20 miles from Traverse City. The forest includes diverse native species, trees of many age classes, and structural diversity. The large, contiguous block of hardwood forest provides excellent habitat for forest interior bird species such as the veery, wood thrush, scarlet tanager, Canada warbler, black and white warbler, and many types of woodpeckers. Other species such as wood and tree frogs, wild turkey, ruffed grouse, white-tailed deer, raccoon, skunk and opossum call this land home. The pond and stream provide important aquatic and shoreline habitats and contribute to the water quality of the Platte River watershed. Salamanders, frogs, fish, snakes, turtles, raccoon, mink, muskrat, ducks, herons, wading birds and songbirds enjoy the wetlands area. The property also contains notable soils that have supported a long history of productive farming in the past. This is your place to enjoy Pure Michigan! Close to Lake Michigan and the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. A Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy easement protects this parcel's beauty. The property may not be split; however, the new owner can build their dream home in the designated section of this parcel and enjoy many diverse recreational actives on the acreage. An elevated building site exists where the current home is now. (The existing home does not have a well, or septic and no value is given to it.) There is also an iconic red barn on the property. Numerous other activities like hunting, various forestry activities, trail construction, ORV use and much more are allowed and can be reviewed in the complete Conservation Easement document.
