Welcome to your own slice of Northport charm: a cozy 1-bed, 1-bath cottage that blends simple comfort with a peaceful, wooded setting just moments from the village. And it comes back to market better than ever, with a substantially rebuilt and updated foundation, new floors, new wainscoting, and a new bath vanity, giving this 1930s charmer the solid footing to go with its good looks. Set within a small cottage community on 2 shared acres, there's a quiet trail system and a scenic two-track path that leads to 75 feet of shared frontage on Northport Bay, perfect for launching a kayak or soaking in the view. Inside, you'll find a bright, well-kept space with a whisper-quiet Mitsubishi mini-split, updated kitchen cabinets and countertops, newer appliances, and updated electrical. It's being sold fully furnished, ready to enjoy or rent as a short-term getaway. With the big-ticket structural work already done, this is a true lock-and-leave: the $80 monthly association fee even covers lawn, snow, and trash. Northport offers a true Up North lifestyle, surrounded by world-class wineries, local cideries, great dining, scenic hiking, and a vibrant, tight-knit community. Whether you're looking for a relaxed second home or an investment in one of Leelanau County's most beloved towns, this cottage delivers charm, setting, and opportunity, now with the bones to match.
