Property Description

Rarely available ranch home in the highly desirable Spring Lake subdivision! This well-maintained home combines single-level living, quality construction, privacy, and an exceptional location. Built with sturdy Jim Giguere construction, the home features 9-foot ceilings throughout the main level and an abundance of natural light. Hardwood floors extend through the main living areas, including a formal dining room and a spacious living room with a fireplace and a wall of windows overlooking the private backyard. The kitchen offers white cabinetry, a center island, and a generous breakfast area with direct access to the expansive deck. The main-floor primary suite includes a walk-in closet and spacious en suite. Two additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a convenient main-floor laundry complete the main level. Over the past 3-4 years, the home has been thoughtfully updated. On the main level, improvements include stainless-steel kitchen appliances, a front-loading washer and dryer, new carpeting, and new light fixtures. The lower level has been updated with luxury vinyl plank flooring and a refreshed bathroom. The roof and furnace are both less than 10 years old. Additional features include a municipal water-powered sump pump backup, central HVAC, and a 7-zone underground sprinkler system. The finished lower level adds approximately 1,300 square feet of living space, including a large recreation area, a fourth bedroom, and a third full bathroom. High ceilings and large above-grade daylight windows make the level feel bright and open, creating a true everyday living space ideal for a children's play area, multi-generational living, or a work-from-home setting. Abundant storage can be converted into an additional bedroom or a future wine cellar by leveraging existing built-in shelving. What sets this property apart is its rare combination of privacy and convenience. The private backyard has no rear neighbors, yet the home is minutes from I-96 and Meridian Crossing Mall. Michigan State University, McLaren Greater Lansing, and University of Michigan Health-Sparrow are all within a 15-minute drive. Located in the top-ranked Okemos Public School District, the home is just a 2-3 minute walk to Hiawatha Elementary School. Directly across the street, Spring Lake residents enjoy exclusive access to the lake, scenic walking trails, tennis and pickleball courts, and a basketball court.
