Property Watch: Throwback Cottage in Glen Arbor

Aug. 28, 2024

When it comes to those charming, old-school cottages scattered about the county, this one definitely looks the part.

The 1,700 square food, wood-sided gem was built in 1958 and offers three bedrooms and one bath. Sure, it could use some updating, but the price seems right for a property that also features 137 feet of frontage directly on Lake Michigan. As the listing says, it can be your getaway until you "build anew." (Indeed, the property is surrounded by newer-build mansions).

The location is killer, with Glen Arbor, Glen Haven, the dune climb and the Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive all mere minutes away.
