Description

A hidden gem on the outskirts of Howell awaits you! Tucked away on 2.3 acres, this 3(4) bed, 3.5 bath walk-out ranch has a little bit of everything. The kitchen features a large peninsula, a buffet/desk area, and a large eat-in dining spot, all great for entertaining. This area flows nicely out onto the updated backyard deck, which stretches the length of the house (56 feet x 20 feet)! Next to the kitchen is the Great Room with natural wood-burning fireplace, vaulted ceilings, and engineered hardwood flooring. The large Primary bedroom features a walk-in closet and en suite, highlighting the garden tub, double-sink vanity, and large shower stall. Downstairs, there is even more home for you! It features a carpeted living room area, another area with LVT flooring, a non-conforming bedroom (bedroom #4), and a full bathroom with tiled shower. The storage room under the stairway offers additional storage spaces including a secret "beverage cellar" area. Winding poured concrete walkway lined with flower beds. Mature trees, a firepit, shed, creek and pond. Abundant wildlife out the front windows. Come see some for yourself today! Some notable items: Reverse Osmosis system under kitchen sink and fridge, AC/Furnace (2020), Hot Water Heater (2019), Softener (2021) with whole-home iron filtration system, Bladder Tank (2022), and backyard deck (2010).
