Two hundred feet of sandy beach combined with 10 acres of pristine privacy protected by a conservation easement, can be all yours. This is the final vacant lot within an exclusive, eight-home enclave on the Leelanau Peninsula. Here, a private road winds through an ancient forest to reveal a sanctuary commanding world-class sunsets, sweeping views of the Manitou and Fox Islands, and endless beach walking. Your immediate haven is bolstered by the neighboring Cathead Point landscape, which is comprised of hundreds of acres subject to a conservation easement, including the breathtaking Kehl Lake Natural Area. The environment is so rare that it holds a protective Critical Dune designation; its dramatic contours invite a visionary with an eye for a home design that honors nature’s landscape, a finite piece of the coastline where absolute scarcity and natural beauty are preserved forever. The drone video captures a glimpse of its beauty, but you must see it to feel it. To respect the neighbors' privacy on this dead-end private road, touring is strictly by appointment only; no drive-by, please.

Set along N Christianson Road in Northport, this 40-acre Agricultural Residential parcel offers a rare combination of Lake Michigan sunset views, rolling topography, and long-term legacy potential in one of Leelanau County’s most sought-after rural corridors. The land features gently rolling hills balanced with usable flat ground, intermixed hardwoods and evergreens, and a partially prepared road cut that provides a meaningful head start toward future development or estate construction. Multiple potential building sites exist, including one elevated location where the owner would fully control the Lake Michigan view, an increasingly rare advantage in today’s market. West-facing orientation delivers dramatic sunset views over Lake Michigan, with additional countryside vistas in nearly every direction. Selective clearing would further enhance sightlines while preserving privacy and natural character. Conveniently located near Fischer's Happy Hour, Gill's Pier, and the Houdek Dunes Natural Area, the property sits within Leelanau Township, approximately 1.3 miles from the Lake Michigan shoreline, offering both seclusion and proximity to the heart of Northern Michigan’s waterfront lifestyle. Zoned Agricultural Residential with splits available, this parcel is ideally suited for a private estate, generational land hold, or thoughtfully planned future use, subject to township approvals. Properties of this scale, orientation, and view control are increasingly difficult to replicate. This is land meant to be held, improved, and passed on.

27 Acres with Lake Michigan Sunset Views – Two Parcels Available at $600,000 Each This 27-acre property in the heart of Leelanau Township offers a rare combination of wide-open countryside, wooded privacy, and unforgettable Lake Michigan sunset views. The township allows one home per 10 acres, and the seller is offering a proposed split: one 13-acre parcel with existing infrastructure and one 14-acre parcel of rolling open ground with elevated view sites. Each parcel is available for $600,000, and the seller is also open to alternative boundary lines to meet a buyer’s needs. The 13-acre parcel includes a three-car garage in usable condition, an existing well, septic system (condition unknown), electrical service, and a driveway access from Christianson Road rather than busy M-22. A large barn and a home are also present on the property. The home and barn speak to the property’s history but will require significant effort to revive. Buyers will need to decide whether to breathe new life into these structures or start fresh with their own design. The most desirable building site on this parcel is separate from the current home, positioned for panoramic Lake Michigan views. The 14-acre parcel offers wide-open building possibilities with an equally impressive view site overlooking the countryside and the lake. Both parcels feature building sites where photos (taken from a 20-foot elevation) capture the sweeping, colorful sunsets that make Leelanau County so prized. Opportunities like this are rare: acreage with utilities, flexible boundary options, and dramatic views of Lake Michigan — all just minutes from local favorites like Fisher’s Happy Hour near Gill’s Pier. Whether you envision building a dream home, creating a private retreat, or simply securing a piece of Leelanau’s most sought-after landscape, this property offers a canvas with endless potential.
