Land for Sale in Cedar, Michigan

The Fleese Farm is an 80 acre farmstead in the heart of the County that for the past 28 years has been under the stewardship of a Leelanau resident who simply wished to preserve a timeless bit of agricultural heritage. Protected in 2020 with a perpetual conservation easement that shields the bulk of the land from development, it can still accommodate a variety of uses such as a CSA, vineyard and winery, or agri-tourism business and allows for a second farmstead building site on the eastern portion of the property. Though the house hasn’t had a resident in over 30 years, the buildings and fields have seen continuous use by area farmers growing hay, corn and rye. With the 40’x76’ timber frame barn and various other outbuildings, 65 tillable acres, wetlands on the eastern boundary that are teaming with wildlife and ephemeral stream that runs through the meadow just east of the barn, it has all the elements one might hope for in an idyllic farm property.
