Residential Land for Sale in Frankfort, Michigan
-2 Carlson Rd, Frankfort, MI 49635
Step up in elevation and the landscape opens up. This five-acre parcel sits higher on the ridge than its neighbor, tucked into the rolling terrain of Crystal Lake Township — yet just minutes from the boutique shops, restaurants, and marina of downtown Frankfort and the sandy shores of Lake Michigan. Broader year-round views of the Betsie Bay Valley greet you from a more commanding building site, where the light shifts beautifully through every season. Mature tree cover provides natural privacy while the elevated topography gives your future home a real presence on the land. Access is via a deeded private road easement, and utilities — gas, electric, and fiber — are available at the Carlson Road entrance, ready to be extended to the site. Well and septic will be required. Whether you're envisioning a weekend retreat, a full-time residence, or a legacy property to hold for generations, this parcel offers the rare combination of genuine seclusion and real-world convenience. And if your vision is larger, this is one of three adjacent lots available — an opportunity to assemble up to 15 contiguous acres in one of Benzie County's most scenic townships. Come walk the land. The setting speaks for itself.
