Michigan, Leelanau County, Leland, USA

Fantastic cottage on Oxford Drive, just south of Leland! Small but mighty, this ~1,000 sf home is a delightful single-story ranch that has been enjoyed as an up-north retreat for decades. This home is located in Waterford Hills Subdivision, well-known for its proximity to Leland and over 400' of community water-frontage on North Lake Leelanau. Residents on Oxford Drive enjoy shared use of the sandy beach and swimming dock - boat docking privileges are also a feature of this frontage, availability will need to be confirmed with the association at time of transaction. This home is located on one of the few lots in this subdivision that have direct water views across highway M22. This unique feature gives this property beautiful easterly lake views and the ease of direct, across-the-road access to the lakeshore. A charming cottage or year-round residence, this home has many desirable amenities. A small sitting room off the back of the house has the feel of a three-season porch with direct access to the back deck and back yard. The kitchen, dining room, and living room flow around a central wood-stove hearth, all under a lofted ceiling. Located to one side of the living room is a modest guest bedroom with a private half bath (which might easily be converted into a powder room). To the other side, towards the lake, there is a primary bedroom with bathroom, closet, and laundry en-suite. A lovely covered porch off the living room features privacy and glimpses of the water through mature trees in the fabulous (and huge!) front yard. There's plenty of room for summer toys and storage in the garage, basement, and detached shed. In all, an excellent Leland residence with the feel of private water-frontage on desirable North Lake Leelanau!
