1947738 MLS ⋅ Metes And Bounds BLDG.
This 3.15 acre parcel offers privacy, mature woods, and a building allowance that is genuinely hard to find in this area. The land is a natural mix of hardwoods and evergreens, providing year-round screening and the kind of quiet, tucked away feel that draws people to Northern Michigan in the first place. What sets this parcel apart is the ability to build a pole barn before constructing a primary home, a rare allowance in this part of Benzie County. For buyers who want to get equipment, a boat, or storage on site early, or who prefer a phased approach to building, this flexibility opens doors that most nearby parcels simply do not offer. This property sits in the northern stretch of Benzie County, close enough to the Leelanau County line that you get the best of both worlds. A short 16 mile drive puts you in downtown Traverse City for dinner or errands. Empire is even closer at 12 miles, Glen Arbor follows at 15, and Lake Ann, the nearest town of all, is just 6.5 miles from your front door. Privacy, wooded character, building flexibility, and a location this close to Traverse City and the Leelanau Peninsula do not come together often.

1947737 MLS ⋅ Metes And Bounds BLDG.
This 2.84 acre parcel offers a rare head start for buyers ready to build their Northern Michigan life without waiting on construction timelines. A 24x50 pole barn is already in place, complete with well and septic installed and functional living quarters, allowing for immediate use of the property while a future home is planned or built. The parcel is metes and bounds with no HOA restrictions, giving buyers genuine flexibility in how they use and develop the land. For those who value independence and control over their own property, this is a meaningful advantage over deed-restricted or platted alternatives. This setup is well suited to buyers who want to get on their land now, whether for weekend use, seasonal living, or as a base while designing a permanent residence. The infrastructure work, often the most time consuming and costly part of a build, has already been completed. Tucked into the northern reaches of Benzie County, this property sits just a short drive from the Leelanau County border, placing it at the crossroads of some of the region's most desirable towns. Traverse City's downtown corridor is a quick 16 mile drive. Empire, with its lakeshore access and small town charm, is 12 miles out. Glen Arbor sits 15 miles away, and Lake Ann, the closest of the bunch, is only 6.5 miles down the road. Wherever the day takes you, from wine tasting to dune climbing to a quiet evening on Lake Ann, it's never far from home. For buyers looking for a turnkey foundation on unrestricted acreage in one of Northern Michigan's most desirable corridors, this is a rare find.

1947731 MLS ⋅ Metes & Bounds BLDG.
Waterfront opportunities of this caliber are uncommon in this market. This 4.7 acre parcel on Pearl Lake offers 169+/- feet of frontage on a true all sports lake, providing genuine recreational access for boating, fishing, and swimming rather than a passive water view. The site has been thoughtfully prepared for development. A driveway is already in place, and the building site has been semi cleared, reducing both the cost and complexity of the build process. The topography supports a lower level walkout design, and the parcel's westerly orientation provides consistent sunset views over the water. Buyers also have the flexibility to build a pole barn before constructing a home, an uncommon allowance that opens the door for phased building plans, equipment and boat storage, or simply getting settled on the property ahead of a full build. Positioned in the northern portion of Benzie County, the property offers a rare combination of privacy and accessibility. Downtown Traverse City is 16 miles away. Empire is 12 miles. Glen Arbor is 15 miles. Lake Ann is just 6.5 miles, placing this parcel within easy reach of the region's dining, wine trails, and outdoor recreation, including Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore. For buyers seeking buildable, all sports waterfront acreage near the Leelanau County line, this parcel represents a distinct opportunity in a location where comparable offerings are rarely available.
