Land with Home for Sale in Northport, Michigan
8580 N Bayview Ave, Northport, MI 49670
Rarely does a property blend timeless character with waterfront living so effortlessly. Set on 2.33 private acres with 165 feet of Northport Bay frontage and a winding creek, this historic A-frame cottage is a truly rare offering. The experience begins long before you reach the front door. Crossing a quaint bridge over the winding creek, the peaceful approach winds beneath a canopy of hardwoods and pines before arriving at a charming vintage barn and nostalgic camp-style carport. This storybook entrance captures the spirit of classic Northern Michigan retreats, setting the stage for the iconic A-frame nestled naturally into its surroundings. Inside, the cottage features one bedroom plus a loft, soaring beamed ceilings with birch accents, hardwood floors, new Andersen windows and sliders, and a beautifully remodeled kitchen with new custom solid wood cabinetry and counters. A propane stove with brick chimney adds warmth and character, while the durable metal roof provides lasting comfort. Outdoor living shines with a new waterside deck, creekside deck, private outdoor shower, and trails and bridges along the winding creek. Swim, boat, and enjoy sweeping views toward Northport Point, with a front-row seat to Northport's iconic Fourth of July fireworks. Historic A-frame cottages with this level of privacy, character, acreage and waterfront setting are exceptionally rare-a true Northern Michigan legacy retreat that combines vintage camp charm with timeless waterfront living.
