The best part of a beautiful sunset? Knowing you'll have another one to look forward to tomorrow. And when Lake Michigan, the western horizon, and the rolling countryside are part of the view, it's hard to imagine a better place to call home. Set within the desirable Empire Hills community, these two adjoining parcels offer a wonderful opportunity to put down roots in one of Northern Michigan's most scenic corners. The landscape offers more than just a pretty view. With varied terrain and western exposure, there's room to get creative with your home design, including the potential for a walkout lower level and elevated outdoor living spaces that take full advantage of the surroundings. Watch the countryside come alive with color in the fall, enjoy the quiet beauty of winter, and welcome those long summer evenings when the sun seems to linger just a little longer. Of course, living here means there's plenty to enjoy beyond your own property. Start your day with a walk on the sandy shores of Lake Michigan, grab a sandwich at Shipwreck Cafe, and head to Grocer’s Daughter for dessert. Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore and the Sleeping Bear Heritage Trail offering miles of adventure in every season are nearby and golfers will appreciate having Dune Valley Golf Course nearby. For more adventure enjoy the neighboring communities of Glen Arbor, Benzonia and Frankfort, And when you need the conveniences of a larger town, Traverse City is just over 30 minutes away. There's something special about finding a place that makes you excited to come home, even before the home is built. These two parcels offer the chance to create just that.
