Description

Welcome to the wild and wonder of this unique, lifestyle landmark. Nestled against the backdrop of a Lake Metro Park and the Grand River, this charming bungalow was completely remodeled in 2007. All new at that time: new wiring (neatly organized in conduit), a second electrical panel, plumbing, all drywall for walls and ceilings, lighting, flooring, siding, roof, and windows. Gathering space is more comfortable than expected with a large entry foyer, roomy eat-in kitchen and 5 x 8 walk-in pantry, as well as an over-sized family room with lots of natural light and exposed architectural beams. Charm and character continue upstairs with the two bedrooms and large, full bath. The basement is dry-locked, and can accommodate more storage than expected, with the addition of built-in shelving. New natural gas furnace in 2016, upgraded to accommodate a larger home. Outside, the adventure and creativity begin with the pole building/ work shop, surrounded by gardens and fruit trees. Near the house, relax in sun or shade as you enjoy the deck and hot tub, as well as paver patio covered by an arbor of wisteria and honeysuckle. Spread over more than an acre, the yard consists of rolling hills leading to a lower plateau glade with a fire pit. All of this nestled within short reach of a walking trail, and broad views of the Grand River. Nearby access to wineries, biking adventures, numerous Metro Park trails, and RT 90. Five minutes from Madison Village.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
