Not every waterfront buyer is looking for the action of an all-sports lake - some people want to look out over a quiet, peaceful lake, enjoying the simple beauty of nature. Tucked away on Tonawanda Lake, this is one of those cherished spots for nature lovers. A pair of loons have been visiting the lake for 54 years, along with ducks, geese, swans, and sand hill cranes. The lake is ideal for quiet paddling whether that's in a canoe or kayak, or on a paddle board. This 1.25-acre triple lot hosts a lovely home with beautifully stained log siding which blends seamlessly with its surroundings. Highlights of the home include a stately stone fireplace and a large dining/sitting room overlooking the water. The 2-car garage features pull-through doors for convenience on the circle drive, and there is also a workshop building set just outside the mud room. Make sure to bring a comfortable deck chair, because your spot for morning coffee by the water will seldom be empty. All this is located just a minute from Interlochen Corners, a couple minutes to the world-renowned Interlochen Arts Academy, and a quick drive into Traverse City. If you do have an itch for all-sports action, Green Lake and Duck Lake are just down the road as well.
