Latern Lake information Auburn Hills Michigan

Latern Lake is approxiamately four to six acres in size. It is a private, non all sports lake in Auburn Hills that is just really a tiny pond that is very close to Great Lakes Crossing.  If you are driving up Baldwin Road to Great Lakes Crossing you will see the lake on the right side of the road.  You can walk to the stores in Great Lakes Crossing.  There are also restaurants just a short drive away.  It is a private lake with no DNR launch or public beach.  It is spring fed lake. 

The lake is so small I would call it a pond.  You cannot do anything on the pond other than fish, or paddle around.  It's such a small lake that there would never be a marina, ski course, or a power boat on the lake.  The roads around the lake are paved.  There is no canal on the lake.   The children on the lake go to private schools or to Pontiac Schools.

Latern Lake is just a tiny pond that is so small that there is no need for a power boat.  I do not know if Latern Lake is swimmable or how deep it is.  All the times I have driven by I have never seen anybody on the lake.  A pond is a Homes for sale Latern Lake Auburn Hills MIfascinating habitat to study, a good one teeming with a great variety of both animal and plant life.  Most home owners are not going to really study the lake.  They are most likely living on the lake because of the water effect. The calming effect, or the peaceful feeling people get from water.   The home owners probably loved the house they bought.  The lake is probably just an after thought or an extra.  They did not buy the house because it was on a lake/pond.

Latern Lake may be home to many different living things, but they are also an important place for many more to visit. Some may come to ponds to drink, cool down, or even hide from predators.  This is what the home owners enjoy the most.  The animals, and birds that come to visit the lake.  There will be a wide variety of geese, ducks, and birds that come to the lake. 

If you want to live on a lake I can help.  Whether you want to live on a small pond or a large all sports lake give me a call or text on my phone.  248-310-6239

Best Oakland County home buyer bonus

Here are some past reviews from clients.

We were recommended Russ’ services after having a previously failed relationship with a different agent. I was skeptical because Russ sells much higher end homes than the range I was looking for. Boy was I wrong!! Russ was insanely attentive, picked up on what we wanted/required in homes and steered us in the right direction. Never once did he try to make up our minds for us, insanely honest and always available to help calm my jitters. He was an amazing guide on the journey of buying our first home. I would recommend his services to anyone and everyone!

Lantern Lake Auburn Hills MIRuss helped us to find our Lakefront Home. He is very knowledgeable and always has your best interest in mind. We looked for almost 1 year viewing over 40 homes. Russ never pressured us or tried to “sell” us a home, he is a very patient real estate agent. What I also appreciated was the fact that he responded usually within a couple of hours by phone or text and tries to set up a showing as soon as possible, which is the key in a seller’s market. Having an agent with many years of experience and knowing the local market is key in the negotiation process. Having Russ on your side makes this foreign process (for first time home buyers) a very smooth and and enjoyable experience.  We definitely recommend Russ, if you plan to buy a home in SE Michigan! I also highly recommend visiting one of his internet homepages to do some research on the local lakes. Lots and lots of information that you couldn’t get anywhere else.

Russ was my third realtor, trying to sell a house I owned in Michigan. I live in Pennsylvania. The house was part of an estate. I owned it for three years. The first two realtors were terrible, compared to Russ. The first couple years I owned it was a real headache for me.
After I hired Russ, the burden was lifted. Russ actually kept an eye on the place for me. He would call and say this needs done or that needs done. If I didn’t have the resources to take care of it, with my permission, Russ would find someone for me. He was great.
He only had to call me a couple of times because, he sold it so quick. We met. He told me, and showed me, what I should list it for. He told me what to expect for a selling price, which I got. I got it in just a few months.
I called Russ this month, 4 years later, and he still remembered me. As Russ had explained when I listed it, I may, and did, have to sell on a land contract. I contacted Russ because the buyers decided to pay it off early. I called him a little anxious. The buyer’s bank is calling with a list of things I need. No problem, Russ had taken care of that, escrowing stuff with the title company, at the time of sale. The only thing I had to do was figure a little interest and he showed me how to do that.
I sure am glad I hired him.
