Don’t miss this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to live in a unique, one-of-kind, cedar-shake beach cottage set directly on the sands of Traverse City’s coveted West Bay. Kayak to Power Island just 1 ¼ miles away; view spectacular sunsets from a west facing, wrap-around deck, then fall asleep to the sound of waves rolling to the shore. Inside, pine covered walls & ceilings flood the living space with a golden hue. Hickory hardwood covers the floor with a fireplace on the north wall. Across scenic Peninsula Drive, nestled in woods, a classic Craftsman style, two-story garage offers plenty of storage for cars and water toys.
