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.
