1 Acre of Residential Land for Sale in Empire, Michigan

Discover a parcel unlike anything else currently offered in Timber View Ridge--a rare blend of privacy, scenery, and potential. Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac atop the bluff and bordered on three sides by protected common space, it feels more like a hidden getaway than a typical neighborhood lot. Thoughtful placement of your future home on the northeast corner opens the door to breathtaking panoramas--expansive views of Big and Little Glen Lakes, the shimmering stretch of Lake Michigan, and the rolling hills that define Leelanau County. In a market where water-view parcels are becoming increasingly limited, this is an opportunity you'll want to look at twice. The property is already ahead of the curve with two driveway options in place. The primary drive leads you upward to the elevated building site, where the potential for stunning vistas is at its best. A secondary drive takes you to the more level lower area--perfect for a garden, firepit, or another outdoor gathering space. In fact, a firepit already sits here, inviting you to unwind under starry skies. And come spring, bring a camper and savor what this area (and view) has to offer all summer long. Timber View Ridge itself is a peaceful 160-acre community known for its walkable trails, natural surroundings, and commitment to thoughtful design. HOA dues cover essentials like road maintenance and snow removal, helping maintain a sense of ease and cohesion in the neighborhood. From this location, you're just minutes from Empire, Sleeping Bear Dunes, beloved Lake Michigan beaches, and the scenic backroads that make this region special--yet still less than half an hour from Traverse City. If you're searching for a parcel that delivers both sweeping vistas and a sense of retreat, this one checks every box. Walk the land, take in the views, and envision the Northern Michigan lifestyle waiting for you here.
