Property Description

Welcome to this meticulously maintained 6-bedroom, 3-bath home, nestled in a family-focused cul-de-sac within close proximity to Michigan State University, walking distance to Cornell Elementary, and St. Martha School. Built in 1991 and lovingly owned by the same family since, this home radiates warmth, care, and thoughtful updates throughout. Step inside to discover a beautifully cared-for interior featuring fresh paint (2024), new carpet (2023), and elegant crown molding in the living and dining rooms. The kitchen and downstairs bath, remodeled in 2008, include Blanco sinks, a custom-made island with a beverage refrigerator, and a hidden knife drawer, details that highlight the craftsmanship and functionality of this space. The upstairs bathrooms, updated in 2016, feature modern finishes including a heated floor in the primary bath for added comfort. The family room offers a welcoming atmosphere with a gas fireplace (installed in 2017) and built-in bookshelves, perfect for gatherings or quiet evenings at home. A main level laundry room adds convenience, while the finished basement provides impressive versatility with a large recreation room, two offices (or an office and an exercise room), and updated electrical outlets. Outdoor living is just as inviting. The deck, carefully maintained every three years, provides a peaceful space to enjoy views of the commons area and the carefully cultivated trees that offer both shade and privacy. The brick mailbox with flower boxes and a replaced cement porch slab (2022) enhances the home's curb appeal, while practical updates, such as a whole-house generator (2014), Reme-Halo air purifier (2023), new water heater (2023), and Eco Shield roof covers (2024), ensure long-term comfort and reliability. Additional highlights include solid wood doors, oil-rubbed bronze hardware, buried downspouts, and updated exterior faucets. The finished garage (new door in 2019) and new refrigerator (2022) complete the list of thoughtful enhancements. This home truly offers more than just features; it provides a lifestyle defined by care, community, and comfort. With its serene setting, beautiful updates, and unbeatable location, it's a place where lasting memories are made.
