Set on more than 6 wooded acres bordering State Land, this Northern Michigan retreat was built for people who love the outdoors as much as they love gathering with family and friends. Spend the morning hunting, riding ORVs, side-by-sides, or snowmobiles directly from your property. Explore your own private trail system and motocross track. Then come home and settle in around the fire.

The main home offers warm, comfortable living with a stunning floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, spacious kitchen, and a covered porch overlooking the woods that will quickly become your favorite place to start and end the day.

And then there's the lodge.

A custom-built gathering space filled with character, knotty pine finishes, a handcrafted log bar, wood stove, full kitchen, and room for everyone to stay awhile. It's the kind of place where birthdays are celebrated, hunting stories get taller with each telling, and memories are made long after the sun goes down.

Family compound. Sportsman's retreat. Weekend getaway. Permanent escape from the noise.

However you imagine Northern Michigan living, this property delivers.

Come walk the property, explore the trails, and see what makes this place so special.

Some homes simply check the boxes. Others make you exhale the moment you walk through the door.

Welcome to 2816 Emerald Bluffs, a beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath condo where every detail has already been thoughtfully considered. Extensively redesigned in 2023 with the guidance of a local interior designer, this home offers the rare combination of style, comfort, and truly turnkey living.

The stunning kitchen features custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, premium Bosch appliances, a Fisher & Paykel double drawer dishwasher, and finishes that feel both timeless and elevated. Updated bathrooms, luxury vinyl plank flooring, custom trim work, upgraded lighting, solid core doors, central air, and countless additional improvements make this a home you can simply move into and enjoy.

The location is just as appealing. Emerald Bluffs offers convenient access to shopping, dining, medical facilities, and everyday necessities, while nearby walking trails and peaceful surroundings provide the perfect balance of convenience and tranquility.

What makes this opportunity so special is the combination of high-end updates, low-maintenance living, and an approachable price point. Homes like this don't come along often.

Stop by Saturday and see why so many people love calling Emerald Bluffs home.

Buying a place up north? The showing can feel dreamy and still miss the details that matter most.

Before you write, check winter access, well and septic history, rental rules, carrying costs, and who can look after the home when you're away. Those five questions can save you real stress later.

We help buyers across Traverse City and Northern Michigan look past the view and into the fine print.

If a second home is on your radar, send a DM and we can help you think through the offer.

10481 S Monaco Way offers a rare opportunity to experience Northern Michigan living in a way that is becoming increasingly difficult to find.

Set within the highly sought after La Riviera community, this 4 bedroom, 4 bath property combines privacy, space, and waterfront lifestyle across 2.0 beautifully positioned acres with 550 feet of shared frontage on West Bay.

Unlike many neighborhood properties, this home offers an uncommon sense of breathing room. Mature surroundings, generous outdoor space, and access to the bay create a setting that feels both peaceful and connected to everything that makes this region so desirable.

Inside, the home offers a functional and inviting layout designed for both everyday living and gathering. Spacious living areas, multiple bedrooms and baths, and room to host guests make this an ideal year round residence, seasonal retreat, or legacy property to enjoy for years to come.

Life in La Riviera is about more than just the home itself. Residents enjoy access to one of Traverse Cityโ€™s most treasured waterfront settings, where long summer days on West Bay, morning walks, and unforgettable sunsets become part of daily life. Properties offering acreage, shared waterfront access, and this level of privacy within such close proximity to Traverse City are increasingly rare.

Whether you are looking for a place to create lasting family memories, entertain with ease, or simply enjoy a quieter pace surrounded by Northern Michigan beauty, 10481 S Monaco Way delivers a lifestyle that feels difficult to replicate.

7787 Eastshore is officially sold!

Some homes carry more than walls and windows. They carry years of memories. Late summer nights by the water. Morning coffee with familiar views. Family gatherings. Holidays. Quiet moments that slowly become part of the story of a life well lived. Selling a home like this is never just a transaction. Itโ€™s bittersweet. Itโ€™s closing one chapter while making room for another. New journeys. New memories. New beginnings for both the seller and the next family who will now build their own story here.

What makes this one especially meaningful is the road it took to get here. When she took a chance on Christina Ballard-Dunklow and BLRG. We had honest conversations. Real strategy. Thoughtful positioning. We studied the market, the timing, the presentation, and the psychology behind the buyer likely to connect with this property. No inflated promises. Just intentional planning, strong marketing, and guidance rooted in experience.

And in the end, it sold. Grateful for the trust. Grateful for the journey. And grateful to help another client move forward into their next chapter.
