About This Home
Perched on top of Old Mission Peninsula and tucked between beautiful vineyards and sweet cherry trees, you will find one of the most stunning land, bay and sunset views Traverse City has to offer. This "retro-charm" ranch offers the perfect location; central to local amenities like the library, award winning restaurants, churches, parks, beaches and an extensive trails system to explore and enjoy. Imagine sitting amongst mature maple, walnut and spruce trees, enjoying a park like setting in your own backyard, listening to birdsong and watching eagles fish in the distance. Be at peace knowing that the land around you is protected from development and will likely remain virtually unchanged. Grapes, blackberries and 5 different varieties of fruit trees will hone your gardening skills and fill your freezer. Carefully chosen perennials will provide you with fresh flowers from April to November. Warm hardwood floors greet you as you enter this 3 bedroom ranch and take in the panoramic view from the front door. The large living room can double as a gathering space for family and friends and a huge dining room for Holiday celebrations. The family room offers a wood burning fireplace that will warm all the hearts and toes in the house and the all around best view of the Bay. The large kitchen that opens to the dining area and deck is perfect for summer entertaining or just a simple morning cup of coffee. The main floor laundry and mudroom off the attached two car garage offers convenience and quick clean up. Plenty of storage and room for hobbies is available in the full basement. Talk with your agent for a list of updates that you may not see with your eyes, but will keep your wallet healthy for many years.
