Real Estate Agent Sander Scott of Net Real Estate Shares Insights as Waterfront Lot Expert in HelloNation
LAKE LEELANAU, Mich., July 03, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- How do I know if land is buildable? This is a question many prospective buyers ask when exploring property along Lake Leelanau's scenic shoreline. In an expert article featured in HelloNation, Sander Scott of Net Real Estate outlines what to check before buying waterfront property to determine whether it's suitable for residential development. Scott emphasizes that buildability is about more than just lot size or appearance. Buyers must evaluate zoning regulations, soil conditions, environmental protections, and access to essential infrastructure before moving forward. Understanding these factors ensures that buyers can realistically achieve their vision for a lakeside home while complying with local and state guidelines. Key considerations include verifying local setbacks, performing a percolation test to assess septic system viability, and consulting the Michigan Department of Environment, Great Lakes, and Energy for site-specific restrictions. Equally important is confirming access to roads and utilities, which can significantly impact costs and construction timelines. Scott recommends working with a knowledgeable local agent to navigate these complexities. His detailed breakdown in HelloNation, Determining the Buildability of a Waterfront Lot in Leelanau, helps buyers make informed decisions about lakefront real estate in Northern Michigan.

Waterfront Queenscliff hideaway selling with private lagoon
A waterfront property with a private lagoon adjoining Swan Bay could be the perfect catch for fishing and kayaking enthusiasts. Launching a hobby craft has never been easier than at 4 McDonald Rd, Queenscliff, a 3.46ha lifestyle listing with unparalleled access to the Ramsar wetland. Uninterrupted views over the bay, native woodland and open grassy space are on offer from a three-bedroom weatherboard cottage currently used as a holiday rental. There's even a bridge to a private island where you can entertain under a gazebo overlooking the lagoon. RT Edgar, Bellarine listing agent Felix Hakins said the property was a nature lover's paradise in an exclusive and secluded setting. He has set a $3.5m to $3.85m price guide for an expressions of interest campaign closing on July 25. 'It is really the only one that has got access bay access there, really it's canoe access and small craft – you can't have motorised craft on Swan Bay,' Mr Hakins said. 'But you can definitely get your canoe through there and it's a really nice set up with all the bird life throughout. 'You get a lot of people that are fishing in there in as well so it's a great fishing spot.' He said the property would work equally well as a permanent residence or holiday getaway, with scope to expand the living space or even build another dwelling, subject to council approval. An updated bathroom is among improvements at the house, which retains hardwood timber floors and expansive glazing framing 360-degree views. The open-plan living area includes a galley kitchen and dining area and flows out to wraparound covered deck with a northern and easterly aspect. A fire pit and stone pizza oven provide other options for outdoor entertaining, while the kids can let their imaginations run wild in the elevated cubby house hidden among the trees. There's lots of storage for canoes and paddleboards in the shed, which includes garaging for two cars.
