Tucked at the very back of Portside Condos, this upstairs 2-bedroom, 2-bath unit gets the prize for “quiet little perch with actual convenience attached.” Step out to your front porch area, wave politely at the world, then sneak off to the TART Trail just beyond the property like you planned something wholesome. Inside, the condo is in great shape with an easy, low-maintenance layout, municipal water and sewer, and a tucked-away feel that makes everyday life pleasantly unfussy. Add in bay views, an efficient location between Traverse City and Leelanau County, and the kind of privacy that makes condo living feel a little less condo-y, and this one makes a very solid argument for itself. NO STR (6mos min), PETS ALLOWED.
