Property Description
Welcome to 656 Thunder Road, a sleek, contemporary retreat just moments from the village of Northport and the shores of Grand Traverse Bay. Designed with a modern NoMi aesthetic, this turnkey home combines clean architectural lines, warm finishes, and an easy, low-maintenance lifestyle—equally well suited as a personal getaway or a proven investment property. Built in 2019, the home offers two generous bedroom suites, each with a private full bath, along with an additional sleeping area that adds versatility for family and guests. Heated concrete floors run throughout the home adding exceptional comfort during Northern Michigan's cooler seasons. The bright, open living area is designed for gathering, with large windows, a distinctive fireplace, and a seamless connection between the kitchen, dining, and lounge spaces. The efficient floor plan makes excellent use of every square foot while maintaining a spacious, uncluttered feel. Thoughtful materials and finishes throughout give the home a modern character that feels fresh, comfortable, and unmistakably Up North. Currently operated as a successful full-time vacation rental, 656 Thunder Road generated more than $50,000 in rental income last year and is on pace to exceed that figure again in 2026. Its modern design, manageable footprint, year-round appeal, and desirable location have made it a strong performer for vacation guests—offering a new owner the opportunity to step into an established income-producing property rather than starting from scratch. From the property, it is an easy walk into downtown Northport for restaurants, shops, parks, the marina, and the waterfront. Spend the day exploring the Leelanau Peninsula, then return home to a stylish retreat that requires very little upkeep. Whether you're looking for a proven investment, a low-maintenance second home, or the flexibility to enjoy both, 656 Thunder Road offers an exceptional combination of location, design, and income potential.
