Looking for your own slice of heaven? This 882 sq ft cottage has been recently updated and includes two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a detached one-car garage. An additional 768 sq ft building which was originally an antique shop provides an opportunity for a bunk room, game/entertainment room, office or home gym. The possibilities are vast. Perhaps the most important is the 25 ft of private frontage with sandy bottom to Big Glen Lake. Enjoy lake living and proximity to Glen Arbor, and the Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.
