Tucked back off the road at the end of a gravel drive and wrapped in mature hardwoods, this sweet 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch on 3.25 private acres is the kind of place that makes you exhale the moment you pull in. Wildflowers spill along the walkway to the front porch: coneflowers, black-eyed Susans, phlox, and a climbing rose, setting the tone for a home that's been genuinely loved and thoughtfully updated. Inside, an open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area is finished in a warm, collected palette of sage and terracotta. Kitchen cabinets were freshly painted in 2024 and paired with a colorful backsplash for a one-of-a-kind look, with the stove and dishwasher both updated in 2021. The island offers extra prep space and casual seating, flowing into a bright living room filled with natural light and views of the wooded lot. The primary suite offers a private bath with a double vanity, a corner soaking tub, and a separate shower. Two additional bedrooms share a second full bath; one is currently used as a well-appointed home office, ideal for remote work or guests. Practical updates make this home an easy yes: LVT flooring throughout (2019), nearly all windows and interior doors replaced in 2021, furnace new in 2021, water pressure tank in 2018, washer/dryer in 2024, new ceiling fans in 2023, updated bathroom faucets, sinks, and toilets in 2023, and fresh interior paint within the last two years. A skylight brightens the second bath, and the metal roof adds durability and low-maintenance peace of mind. Outside, enjoy a large one-car garage, a dedicated garden shed, and a separate office/hobby shed, all tucked among the trees for privacy. The 3.25-acre setting offers room to garden, roam, or simply enjoy the quiet. Located in Cedar, you're minutes from Leelanau Peninsula wineries and orchards, and just a short drive from Traverse City. Move-in ready, meticulously maintained, and full of character, come see it for yourself.

LITTLE TRAVERSE LAKE – This meticulously maintained craftsman style home blends timeless design with modern comforts, creating a true lakefront sanctuary. It has nearly 3700 square feet of interior living space, 4 bedrooms and 4 ½ baths, ample gathering areas, and overflow sleeping space with commanding views of the lake throughout. The current owners have undertaken a long list of improvements and upgrades including granite countertops, refinished solid wood flooring, beautifully overhauled decks and extensive landscaping. The home offers single-story living, with a private primary suite opposite the generous common areas and a three-season screened porch that feels inviting rain or shine. Upstairs, you’ll find another ensuite bedroom plus two more and a second full bathroom. The open lower level offers flexible space for an office, workout area, and game room, along with another full bath and a walk-out to a new composite deck that spans the width of the home and provides access to the waterfront. Outside, a professionally landscaped front yard/garden area leads from the paved driveway to a covered entry. On the lakeside, the owners have encouraged the restoration of native species, which is not only ecologically beneficial to the lake, but is a low-maintenance solution that serves double-duty as a refuge for the abundant wildlife passing through from the Sleeping Bear National Lakeshore just across Traverse Lake Road. The shoreline of this section of Little Traverse Lake has a firm sand bottom and the lake itself is fantastic for all activities from fishing to watersports, yet is free of crowds. And with the Swanson Preserve and the recently protected Sugar Loaf Mountain creating the backdrop across the lake, your views will never change.

Wildlife. Wonder. Waiting. Cedar Creek Ranch is 400 acres of untamed Leelanau County beauty where privacy, wildlife, and possibility come together in a way that’s nearly impossible to find today. Stretching across Kasson, Solon, and Centerville townships, this extraordinary property feels like Northern Michigan’s own Jurassic Park, wild, secluded, and full of opportunity. At the center of the ranch sits a custom-built 6,200-square-foot home featuring solid oak trim, cherry hardwood floors, and sweeping views across pasture and hardwood ridge-lines. From the sunken living room to the oversized kitchen built for gathering around the island, every space was designed to bring people together and slow life down a little. Beyond the home, the landscape includes 200 acres of high-fenced wilderness where deer roam freely, honoring the property’s hunting heritage. Victoria Creek winds through cedar swamp and lowland forest, while wildlife, waterfowl, and starlit skies make every day here feel connected to nature. The stocked pond, filled with trout, largemouth bass, and sunfish, only adds to the experience. With no conservation easements and a transferable DNR/Ag permit already in place, the possibilities here remain wide open. The property includes The 1300 Sq ft Lodge, a five-stall horse barn with indoor arena, supporting, fenced pasture and supporting amenities, a finished garage, batting cage, accessory buildings, two large workshops, and so much more. Together they create the perfect setup for equestrian living, retreats and events, hobby farming, or a multi-generational family compound. Located just 1.5 miles from Cedar, only 30 minutes from Cherry Capital Airport, and 40 minutes from Traverse City Horse Shows, Cedar Creek Ranch feels worlds away while staying remarkably accessible. Whether you envision a luxury outdoor retreat, an equestrian haven, or a legacy property built to last for generations, this is a place designed to hold big dreams.

Designed for comfort and connection, the home offers generous living areas, a spacious kitchen made for gathering, and a wraparound porch where sunrises and wildlife sightings become daily life. Complementing the main residence is 1300 sq ft Lodge, an inviting guest retreat overlooking the pond and surrounding sanctuary. Originally the family's first home, it later welcomed guests who traveled from near and far to experience the ranch during its active hunting years. For equestrian enthusiasts, the estate is ready to ride. A 50 x 56 five-stall horse barn includes wash and grooming areas, tack and feed storage, and room for future expansion. Attached is a 72' x 80' indoor riding arena with LED lighting, providing year-round opportunities for riding and training. Fenced pasture and supporting improvements complete the setup. Includes a finished and insulated four-car garage, along with several accessory buildings (60'x24' Storage Building & 24' x 24' Insulated workshop) for hobbies, equipment, and future endeavors.
