About This Home

338 Feet of Elk Lake Frontage - Rare, Splittable Property. Properties like this are nearly impossible to find on Elk Lake. This estate offers one of the largest stretches of shoreline available on the lake today, and it has the potential to be split, creating multiple prime parcels on one of Northern Michigan's most desirable lakes. Set just minutes from Elk Rapids, the 4-bedroom, 4-bath home offers a fantastic foundation with room to expand. Features include an attached garage, an unfinished basement, and an unfinished bonus area above the detached garage, ideal for a guest suite or studio. Multiple outbuildings provide space for storage, hobbies, or lake toys. The property's expansive yard and established gardens are the perfect complement to the breathtaking sunrise views over Elk Lake.
