Description

Mid-Century Magic in Larkin Township! Step into this Francis E. "Red" Warner masterpiece, a mid-century modern gem where Michigan Modern meets Frank Lloyd Wright vibes. Warner, the visionary architect and protégé of Alden B. Dow, crafted living artworks that flood spaces with natural light and erase the line between indoors and out. Here, vaulted ceilings soar, while massive floor-to-ceiling windows invite the lush, wooded acre surrounding you to bring the party. Tucked away in serene Larkin Township, this private retreat boasts easy-care landscaping that lets you sip coffee instead of wrestling weeds—because who has time for that? Inside, the soul of the home is kept with authentic woodwork that reflects the timeless architecture. The star of the home is a jaw-dropping, period-compatible kitchen redo where stainless steel appliances gleam against quartz counters, a brick entry adds rustic edge, and tile floors keep things grounded. This vintage home has been meticulously upgraded to outsmart the future. Fresh interior paint from 2015 sets a crisp canvas, while the inner workings have been upgraded as well with furnace and AC plus a mini-split in the addition in 2017 and a 2nd furnace for the addition in 2022. The home has many wireless features for lighting with authentic Nelson lamps added, a smart sprinkler system, and the wifi enabled home alarm. Other energy features include an all new electrical panel in 2018, smart energy monitoring, an EV charge port in the garage and a newer Generac. Finally, let’s not forget the roof done in 2023. This Warner wonder isn't just a house—it's a statement. Private, polished, and primed for your next chapter on that wooded acre. Ready to make it yours? Let's talk.
