Designed by renowned architect Brad Wheeler, this thoughtfully crafted home is quietly tucked within The Bluffs, one of the most sought-after neighborhoods on the Old Mission Peninsula. Set on over an acre of private, wooded land, the home offers a rare blend of architectural integrity, natural beauty, and access to East Grand Traverse Bay. The main level is welcoming and expansive, featuring a light-filled living room with vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, and oversized picture windows that frame the private landscape. Two bedrooms and two bathrooms on the main floor allow for comfortable main floor living, while the lower level provides a third bedroom, full bath, and a generous family room - ideal for guests, recreation, or a home office. Residents of The Bluffs enjoy approximately 1000 feet of shared frontage on East Grand Traverse Bay, with a community dock, the ability to have a boat on a lift, along with access to tennis and pickleball courts, private walking trails, and a neighborhood playground. All of this is just minutes from downtown Traverse City, and surrounded by wineries, beaches, and scenic charm that define the Old Mission Peninsula lifestyle. This is a timeless Northern Michigan home - architecturally significant, peacefully private, and exceptionally well located. The home was recently appraised at $817,000.
