Property Description

Rare downtown Suttons Bay compound combining a historic village residence, separate guest apartment above/with the detached garage, functional garage space, and walkability to the village. Set on a 0.17-acre village lot, this property offers a different ownership pattern than a typical single residence: main house living, separate guest quarters, garage utility, village access, and a small upper-level bay view all in one package. The 1910 main home is move-in ready and includes 4 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, with notable historic character in the wood floors and staircase. The layout includes a formal dining room, kitchen with quartz countertops, living spaces, pantry, bay windows, porch, fenced yard, landscaping, underground sprinkler system, municipal water/sewer, natural gas forced-air heat, cable internet/WiFi availability, and village sidewalk access. Reverse osmosis systems are installed in both the main house and guest apartment. The separate guest apartment above/with the detached garage adds meaningful flexibility for visitors, work, studio use, or other guest-quarter needs. The apartment was built out in 2016 and has an open living/sleeping layout, bath, terrace, and kitchen or kitchenette setup depending on buyer verification. The detached garage was built in 1999 and remains fully functional as an oversized 26 x 30 two-car garage, giving the property both separate finished space and practical vehicle/storage/workshop utility. Located in the Village of Suttons Bay, close to restaurants, shops, beach, marina, parks, library, theatre, and the Leelanau Trail. A small upper-level bay view adds to the village setting without making the property dependent on the view. The guest apartment has been used as an Airbnb; current short-term rental license does not transfer. Future short-term rental use is possible with Village approval.
