002 Kettle Way, Empire, MI 49630
Description
In search of the perfect building site on the western side of Leelanau County? This could be "the one"! Located on the quiet rural byway Echo Valley Road, this unique offering is one of 8, small number of estate sized parcels in "Kettle Woods", aptly named after several "kettles" that are on the adjacent Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore property. "Kettle holes" formed during the glacial ice age, when large blocks of ice broke off glaciers, with extreme downward pressure, and when they eventually melted, left large depressions in the earth, creating either dry recesses, or kettle lakes, common to the area. There are three such formations within an easy walking distance of this 2.5 acre parcel with 355' bordering the National Park. This site is convenient to Glen Arbor or Empire, both just a few miles away, and has end of the road privacy, as Echo Valley turns into a seasonal road beyond the entrance to Kettle Woods. It's the ideal location for your Up North getaway, or permanent residence. Great potential for a walkout, or lookout lower level. Features include underground electric, minimal common sense building and use restrictions, great road access, and cable will be available when the first home commences construction and puts in a request for service. Echo Valley is truly a magical location. This is your limited opportunity to make your own magic, in Leelanau County!
