Relax on the sugar sand beach of your Lake Michigan waterfront property. Seven large ready to build lots. Four with private beach frontage and three that share one association beach where you will enjoy swimming, boating, and captivating waterfront sunsets. Your discreet lakeshore dream home belongs on these unique properties, ideal for year-round or summer living. Large wooded lots in a dune setting about 4 miles into downtown Manistee, MI in the new Forest Beach at Manistee lakefront subdivision. Competitively priced. About a mile of beach to the north owned by sand mining company makes this a very private beach. Manistee has its own airport, casino, great golfing, fishing, community indoor pool, parks, theaters and beaches. Spectrum high speed internet is available but hasn't been hooked up yet. On the stairs: Currently there is a walking path to the beach on Lot 4, covered by an easement for beach access for lots 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, as well as our own lot 1 with house. If stairs are needed in the future, due to changing dune conditions, that would be a decision for the HOA, and would be a shared cost. On the seawall: Currently there is no need for a seawall. If in the future there is a need due to changing lake water levels, that would be a decision for the HOA, and would be a shared cost. On the sale of our house: As soon as one lot is under contract to sell, our house will come off the market. We have no plans to sell the house and our lot at this time. On the schedule: As soon as one lot is under contract to sell, we will begin the finalization and registration of the 8 individual parcels under separate parcel numbers with legal descriptions, and all easement and HOA descriptions applied. This could be completed by 6/30 for a closing sale date. On the driveway and utility installation: We would need some flexibility here, based on contractor and utility schedules for availability, but our goal would be to have the driveways and underground electric and cable to each home site by 9/30. On driveway work: We are responsible for gravel driveway installation. After all seven homes are completed, paved driveways will be an HOA decision and would be a shared cost. On driveway maintenance: Annual snow plowing and driveway maintenance will be an HOA decision and assessment each year. Modest cost anticipated ( a few hundred dollars per year ). On trash removal: Manistee Township picks up trash on Wednesday each week. HOA will have a place along Lakeshore Road for secure trash bins. It will be the responsibility of each home owner to bring to the roadside site and retrieve each week.
