The home has 100 ft. of Lake Michigan frontage at the mouth of the Grand Traverse Bay. It overlooks the Leelanau Peninsula and the Fox Islands.

The home is located in the quaint village of Norwood, just 8 miles south of Charlevoix and 45 minutes north of Traverse City. You can get to Mackinac Island, a multitude of golf courses and ski hills within an hours drive!
Just one flight of stairs and you are on the beach! Our beach has sand/rocks and is private. The water is crystal blue and nature is at its best. The home is located on a secluded, dead end road which offers some of the finest views for casual walks and wildlife viewing. There is a county park a half mile north which connects to Fisherman's Island State Park. There is a wooded lot north of the house which adds to your privacy. If you are a boater, you can drop in your boat at various launch sites in Lake Charlevoix or Torch Lake.
The home has two bedrooms (and a loft) and one oversized bathroom. One bedroom features a queen size bed facing the water and the second has two twin beds. The upstairs sleeping loft has 5 single beds. There is a picnic table and charcoal grill for outdoors and a foosball table in the basement.
There are so many things to do closeby: shopping, boating, plenty of GREAT golf courses, or just relax! Come and enjoy northern Michigan at its finest.

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
We are a young family who loves Northern Michigan.
Why the Owner Chose Charlevoix
We love to spend time relaxing on the "big lake" with family and friends. We have extensive family in the area and know it is the spot we want to be in when we retire. Nothing beats a sunset over Lake Michigan with your loved ones sitting beside you!
The Unique Benefits of this House
We have a gorgeous view of the lake and a private lot so you won't encounter any neighbors. We have tried to make the accomadations comfortable by having a grill, solid pine patio furniture, a flat screen TV (for DVD's), and a renovated bathroom for our guests. The close proximity to town is nice but also great to be away from it too.
