42 ACRES + 500' OF DRAMATIC SHORE FRONTAGE! Parcels like this don't come along very often - one that has been in the same family for two generations. Now it's time for someone else to enjoy this property with magnificent views of the passage, the boat traffic and Washington Island in the distance. The site is large enough to accommodate virtually any size home if you want to build. Or, just enjoy the present home and guest house for a great get-away place on the shore! |  |

Permanent piers are hard to find in Door County, especially large ones. This U-shaped pier is 75' x 45' x 75'. DNR permits have been obtained for dredging if needed for very large vessels. Ample storage is provided by the boat house - a spacious 32' x 18.5' - perfect for boats and more in the off season. |

The Porte Des Morts passage is a famous part of Door County history. Here you can see it in it's magnificent beauty, with Washington Island on the horizon. Often you will see freighters, ferries, and pleasure boats in this deep-water passage from the Bay of Green Bay to Lake Michigan. The beach is gently sloping to the water. Little ones can skip stones, paddle a small boat, or just enjoy the out-of-doors. |
The site is located 0.8 miles off Highway 42 (the red line in the aerial to the right) about halfway between Gills Rock and the Northport ferry dock. For more detail see the ENLARGED AERIAL VIEW. Shown by appointment only. |

The main house is an old but comfortable two bedroom, one bathroom place. The wonderful enclosed front porch is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view or playing a family board game. For detail of room sizes and more see the MLS DATA SHEET. See the MAIN HOUSE PICTURE TOUR for interior views. |

The guest house is an old log structure that, according to the lettering etched into the mortar, was "Built in 1885... Rebuilt in 1940". It's attractive inside, sleeps 3+ and has a full bath and kitchen, and, of course, a great water view out the front sliding door! See the GUEST HOUSE PICTURE TOUR for interior views and room dimensions. |
