Property Description

You wont find another property quite like this - an extraordinary blend of character, space, and modern updates set on nearly 4.5 acres just minutes from Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti. This expansive two-story farmhouse has been thoughtfully updated and expanded into a truly one-of-a-kind retreat, offering the perfect balance of country living with convenient access to the city. A welcoming formal entry with stained glass sidelights and crown molding sets the tone, leading into a home filled with warmth and distinctive architectural details. At the heart of the home, the renovated kitchen impresses with stone countertops, high-end stainless-steel appliances including a Viking cooktop and Sub-Zero refrigerator, a walk-in pantry, and a sunny bay window over the sink. Just beyond, a spacious formal dining room is ready to host everything from intimate dinners to large holiday gatherings. The adjacent living room features a vaulted ceiling and built-ins for storage and display, creating a comfortable space to gather. An enclosed porch off the dining room offers the perfect spot to relax or dine while enjoying peaceful views and afternoon sunshine. The main level also includes a stunning primary suite at the front of the home, complete with a generous bedroom with space for a sitting area, an adjoining flex room ideal for an office, nursery, or craft space, and an updated private bath. A separate home office showcases beautiful wood flooring with inlay, custom built-ins, and elegant lighting details. Upstairs, a second primary suite offers a walk-in closet and a beautifully renovated private bath with dual vanity, spa tub, separate shower, and heated floors. Three additional spacious bedrooms with high ceilings and ample closet space share a full hallway bath, all centered around a versatile family or sitting room - perfect for a homework station or cozy reading nook. The partially finished walkout basement adds even more living space with a rec/game room featuring a built-in entertainment center and large daylight windows. The basement also offers an abundance of tucked-away storage space and laundry. Step outside to your own private country oasis. The enclosed porch leads to a fieldstone patio and an in-ground pool surrounded by beautiful paver and stone work - an ideal setting for summer entertaining. The expansive grounds include multiple outbuildings, such as a guest house with its own living space, kitchenette, bedroom, full bath, and laundry, as well as a barn currently home to goats and alpacas, a detached garage with room for multiple vehicles, and an additional storage building.
