This
unique property sits safely on a 14
foot bluff of sandstone running along
Lake Superior 972 feet. Shoreline is
of mixed sand, pebbles and granite boulders
scattered along the scalloped coastline.
Heavily forested with mixed hardwoods,
pine, spruce and hemlock. The land faces
east out over the lake with spectacular
sunrises, swooping eagles and dramatic
storms enhancing the awe of this inspiring
landscape. Private, secluded and unspoiled
and just ten minutes from the city limits.
The property is serviced by a paved
and plowed, all-season road, with electrical
service. This waterfront has just become
available from a private estate and
is being offered in two shoreline parcels
of 472 feet and 500 feet.
Two Parcels are offered:
A) The north property is 2 acres and
472 feet of shoreline. There is approximately
335 feet of frontage on Eagles Nest
Road and the property width varies from
330 feet to 230 feet.
B) The south property is 1.6 acres and
500 feet of shoreline. There is about
385 feet on Eagles Nest Road and the
width runs about 210 feet.
Additionally, there are 6 plus acres
west, across the road. This parcel is
up a steep bank about 25 feet and is
beautifully forested with mixed hardwoods,
red and white pine, spruce and hemlock.
This acreage will be available to the
purchaser of either lakeside property
for $10,000. The lakeshore properties
have not been timbered for over seventy
years and contain mature trees of most
Northern Michigan species. The forest
here is lush and dense and includes
old falls as well as new growth. The
land sits up some 14 feet above the
water for ideal protection and scenic
viewing. The shore cliff is of red and
white sandstone the same, which is found
at Pictured Rocks near Munising. The
shoreline is scalloped with large and
small coves having been created by the
waves over centuries. Each cove has
a beach of sand, pebbles, boulders or
both. The water is crystal clear. Access
to the beach is provided by the wooden
stairway you will construct like others
have up and down the shore. Two islands
can be seen from the property. Little
Presque Isle lies to the south two miles
and Granite Island is straight out east
about five miles. Ore carriers can be
seen heading from Marquette to Duluth.
Eagles, osprey and loons will be overhead
while the forest harbors everything
from weasels to whitetails. No two sunrises
are the same, each is awesome. This
magnificent property is conveniently
located just 13 minutes from the hospital
and the university, electricity is on
site and the county plows the all season
access road. Good well water can be
expected at about 40 feet. The generous
front footage and the rugged forest
provide complete privacy and it's only
minutes from town. The property has
been surveyed and local appraisers have
been consulted regarding values. Parcel
A is offered at $690 per front foot
($325,000). Parcel B is offered at $590
per front foot ($295,000).
