Tucked inside the northern corner of Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, this property is a rare and desirable find. Wonderfully secluded, yet easily accessible, this is a beautiful and simple single-family residence on 3.1 acres of wooded hillside. It is a category 3 inholding and is protected by the National Park on three sides. In 2010, new exterior framing, windows, and roof were built on top of an existing 1949 stone foundation. Then, in 2015, this 'unfinished residence' was completed inside with new interior finishes, fixtures, and systems. The home is a split-level floor plan which has been efficiently organized into the small footprint of the original stone foundation. The main level is a lofty open plan consisting of a large living space, dining area, and kitchen - all boasting seasonal views of Good Harbor Bay through the woods and meadows of the National Park. This home sleeps seven comfortably, with two bedrooms and a full bathroom in the mid-level wing, and the third bedroom or family room plus half-bath on the lower, walk-out level. Located in Leland Public School District, this home is less than ½ mile to Good Harbor Beach and is central to many of Leelanau County's villages and towns. Just off the M-22 scenic highway and near to the intersection of County Road 651, Gousty Knowe Lane is a privately maintained gravel road with ten seasonal and year-round homeowners sharing road maintenance. This home is beautifully appointed and a model of protected privacy. Unique in every way, this is a legacy property in the making - all within the bounds of our spectacular National Park!
