7398 E Alpers Rd, Lake Leelanau, MI, 49653

Extremely rare 40 acre parcel that had been in the same family for many generations. This property, currently the only blank slate large acreage plot for sale in desirable Leland Township, is just around the corner from public access on North Lake Leelanau, yet is completely private and secluded. Fantastic location with a 6 minute drive to the town of Lake Leelanau, 7 minutes to Leland and close to several wineries. Zoned Agricultural with zero deed restrictions, this parcel has plenty of possibilities, many unique features and a wonderful varied topography. A new gravel driveway leads you through the woods, into a clearing and up a rise to an open and panoramic building site. Underground electric has been installed near the building sites that offer the best countryside views. Some limited Lake Michigan views are possible the further south you go, however the countryside views are stunning. 15 acres of the top elevation has been planted in native grasses and wildflowers which will mature and thicken with every year. This section has very rich soil. There are over a dozen wild apple trees that produce wonderful fruit. Trails and a two track have been created on the lower topography, through the valley, to the end of the parcel in the woods. The property boasts a spring fed pond, a beautiful valley and abundant wildlife including deer, bobcat, coyote, turkey, grouse and woodcock. There is a 20x30 metal storage building not far from the end of the driveway on the upper elevation. There is a Perc test on file approved for conventional septic. This rare and beautiful site with large acreage neighboring parcels would be a wonderful estate, grandiose gentleman's farm, excellent home based farm business or family compound that would be cherished for many generations to come.
