2408 pinehurst trail

Welcome to paradise! This charming cottage located 20 minutes from downtown Traverse City, on one of the most beautiful and pristine lakes in Grand Traverse County, is sure to check all your boxes. Located on Arbutus Lake #1, you can enjoy peace and quiet thanks to the “no wake” designation while you swim, fish, kayak, paddleboard, or just relax. A short boat ride through the canal to lakes 2, 3, and 4 open a world of fun where all motor sports are welcomed before coasting back into serenity on lake #5 which is also “no wake”. Arbutus Lake is known for its crystal-clear water, great fishing, and abundance of wildlife including Loons, and a Bald Eagle. This adorable home combines quintessential northern Michigan features such as a natural stone fireplace, warm knotty pine interior, and a spacious covered porch, with modern upgrades including solid surface countertops in the kitchen/bath, stainless steel appliances, and a mini split heating/cooling system, to provide all the comforts of home. A wide-open living area allows plenty of space for everyone to gather and enjoy the water views. Relaxing in the swing overlooking the lake from indoors or enjoying the views from your covered porch as you listen to all the wildlife, will surely become some of your favorite pastimes. Outside, a hundred-year-old stone retaining wall adds charm as you wander across the quiet lane to 55 feet of private sandy lake front. There's even a quaint lakeside shed for all the water toys. This amazing home is not only turnkey ready for you to enjoy, but also brings you peace of mind knowing all major ticket items such as well/septic, electrical, plumbing, siding, windows, roof, heating/cooling, and utilities have been updated in recent years. It is ready for you to enjoy!
