About This Home

As of May 2025

This fully furnished, turnkey chalet offers a seamless transition into the vacation rental market or your next investment property. This chalet is nestled within Sugar Loaf Estates, adjacent to the Manitou Passage Golf Club. Located in beautiful Leelanau County, this property is perfectly positioned near top local attractions—renowned wineries and vineyards, the historic charm of Fishtown, Sleeping Bear Dunes, and Traverse City, just a short 20-minute drive away. Plus, the pristine shores of Lake Michigan are only two miles from your doorstep, making this home an ideal spot for vacationers. With its 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and additional loft space, this chalet spans three levels, providing plenty of room for guests. The loft can easily function as an office or a fifth non-conforming bedroom. The detached garage offers ample storage space for a vehicle, outdoor gear, or toys, enhancing the property’s appeal for travelers. Recent updates include a brand-new furnace installed in October 2024. Other 2024 improvements include a new water heater and water softener along with other key improvements in 2023 such as new PEX plumbing and updated electrical systems. A complete list of updates is available. The current owner has had great success operating this home as a short-term rental, making it an excellent investment opportunity for those looking to enter or expand within the vacation rental market.
