001 S Bright Road

If you’ve been looking for a little more space, privacy, and a place to build something of your own in Leelanau County, this wooded acreage gives you a great place to start. Set within Brightland Woods between Maple City and Cedar, the property features a cleared building site along an elevated ridge with views to the east. The rolling terrain and natural slope could work well for a variety of home styles, particularly a walkout lower level. Mature hardwoods surround much of the property, creating that classic wooded Up North setting while still giving you the flexibility to selectively clear additional trees to bring in more sunlight. A driveway is already installed and the building area has been cleared, taking care of some of the early work as you begin planning for the property. Electricity and high-speed internet are available at the road. And there’s space to think beyond the house. Kasson Township allows a pole barn to be built before the home, giving you the option to create space for a boat, camper, workshop, equipment, or all the extra gear that comes with enjoying Northern Michigan. Plant a garden, create trails through the woods, or simply leave more of the property natural and enjoy having your own space to explore. Along the south side, the property borders more than 1,000 acres of State Land, extending that sense of space well beyond your own property. And if five acres isn’t enough for what you have in mind, the neighboring 5.01 acre parcel is also available. You’ll feel tucked into the woods when you’re home, yet you’re still within easy reach of everything Leelanau and Benzie Counties have to offer, from beaches, trails, and lakes to golf, small towns, and plenty of ways to enjoy the Up North. Traverse City is just 15 minutes away. Build the home, add the pole barn, utilize the land, and create a place that fits the way you want to live. This might just be the spot to discover what comes next.
