Property Description

Enjoy shared access to beautiful North Lake Leelanau! Located near the base of Whaleback and just one mile from Leland, Waterford Hills on Oxford Drive is a quiet neighborhood where residents enjoy a special perk - deeded access to the lake! Well-known for its sandy bottom and clear water, Lake Leelanau is an all-sports waterway and is a sought-after amenity. This offering is a single-story residence tucked into the woods near the end of the neighborhood cul-de-sac. The home sits on one of the largest lots in this community and is offered with the adjacent vacant parcel. Built in 1980, this home features knotty-pine finishes, lofted ceilings, and numerous floor to ceiling windows which frame views to the yard and hardwoods beyond. The floor plan was thoughtfully designed with two separate living spaces on opposite sides of a central dining room and adjacent kitchen. Cozy, yet comfortable, there is an efficiency in this layout which allows these spaces to feel connected yet separate all at once. Two primary bedrooms - each with bathrooms ensuite - flank the main living room, while a third room could be used as bedroom or office. Functionally, this home checks all the boxes: the attached two-car garage is enhanced by a storage room and wall-to-wall shelves, and is connected to the home by a mud-room with laundry. At the front door, a entryway provides storage and is a helpful transition between the covered front deck to the interior. In the backyard, you’ll find a quiet oasis which benefits from mid-day sun while remaining cool and breezy in the heat of the summer. Take in the sights and sounds of the woods from the back deck, which beautifully connects the interior to exterior and is perfect for daytime siestas, alfresco dinners, and evening cocktail parties - an entertainer’s dream! In all, this is an absolutely charming home ready for your vision. Take advantage of this opportunity to live in the woods, near town, and with priceless access to the lakeshore!
