Property Description
A rare opportunity to own on one of Big Platte Lake’s most sought-after stretches of shoreline has arrived. Located along quiet Edgewater Drive on the lake’s west shore, this special property offers 108 feet of private, direct sandy-bottom frontage on a deep, wooded 3-acre lot with a large pole barn. With only three properties on Edgewater Drive having been offered for sale through the MLS, opportunities in this location are truly rare. The setting offers the privacy, lake views, and peaceful Northern Michigan atmosphere buyers hope to find, with a spacious grassy lawn leading to an exceptionally sandy shoreline with no rocks. A gazebo overlooking the lake, lakeside deck, and private dock provide great spaces to relax, entertain, and enjoy time on the water. The oversized detached heated garage provides excellent storage for vehicles, boats, and recreational gear. Above the garage is a 500 sq.ft studio apartment with a half bath, offering valuable additional space for guests or extended stays. Big Platte Lake is a true all-sports lake known for boating, fishing, swimming, and paddling. The Platte River flows through the lake and continues toward Lake Michigan within Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore, adding to the recreational opportunities that make this area so special. Properties offering this combination of sandy frontage, acreage, privacy, guest space, and an Edgewater Drive location simply do not come along often.
