Just six minutes from downtown East Jordan, this extraordinary property spans over 43 acres across two parcels—a rare combination of scenic beauty, privacy, and limitless potential. The larger 40-acre parcel features a unique 8-acre heart-shaped pond, reaching depths of more than 20 feet. The pond serves as both a stunning centerpiece and a natural resource, offering year-round enjoyment and visual appeal. It is home to many waterfowl and even holds fish. The surrounding property is owned by the Little Traverse Conservancy, so opportunities for hunters are bountiful. The second parcel is a three acre strip of land providing access to the larger parcel. A well established gravel drive in place which crosses over a 100 foot strip of conservancy land to access the larger parcel. Currently, the larger parcel is zoned Residential and the other Agricultural, but surrounding properties suggest rezoning could be a realistic opportunity for a range of future uses. Whether you envision an estate-sized homesite, family compound, private retreat, or boutique wedding and event venue, this property offers the rare versatility to bring big dreams to life. A Planned Unit Development (PUD) or zoning variance may unlock even greater potential—ideal for investors, developers, or visionaries seeking to make their mark in Northern Michigan’s growing market. The property's address is on Ellsworth Rd, but also has access from the south off Nelson Road. The property has also recently been approved by the county health department for a traditional septic system. Here, natural beauty meets boundless opportunity. Imagine the possibilities.
