About this House

Tucked beneath mature trees on a quiet corner lot in Romulus, this fully rebuilt home offers something rare: genuine peace.

Every inch was redone from the studs out. Real red cedar tongue and groove finishes throughout. New ceilings, new floors, and walls finished with the kind of care that shows. The main level bedroom features a custom walk in closet, while upstairs a private loft with its own closet and overhead window fills the space with natural light and frames a view of the Christmas train every December.

The expanded bathroom is finished in real stone tile with cedar accents, all new plumbing, and new fixtures. New electrical, new AC, and an annually serviced furnace mean nothing has been left to chance.

Step outside to a front deck, a side porch, and a 12x12 shed. The corner lot gives you generous yard space that extends well beyond the dedicated dog run connected off the side door, giving pet owners convenience without sacrificing the open feel of the full grounds. A dedicated laundry room rounds out a home that has truly been thought through.

This is the kind of home you stop rushing in.

Offered at $175,000.
