The level, untouched property is surrounded by mature towering trees and accessed by a private dead-end road, offering exceptional privacy.

Vacant building sites like this on West Grand Traverse Bay are becoming increasingly difficult to find, don't miss this opportunity to create something truly special on Old Mission Peninsula!
