Tucked away on 4 private acres—just 20 minutes from Midland or Bay City and 15 from Auburn—this bi-level beauty offers flexibility, function, and fabulous views! Upstairs you’ll find 3 bedrooms, an inviting living room with a wood-burning fireplace, and a sunroom that opens to a dreamy, covered wrap-around balcony. The kitchen was just updated 2 years ago with solid wood cabinetry and quartz counters—there’s even space for a moveable island! The entryway gives off serious mid-century modern vibes, and the upgraded doors and floors complete the polished look. Downstairs? A whole second living space awaits—with another kitchen (cooktop, mini fridge & microwave), laundry, a spacious primary suite with private bath and fireplace, and access to a 3-season sunroom. A possible 5th bedroom or flex space adds even more options. This space is perfect for perfect for multi-generational living or short-term rental potential! The oversized detached garage is the cherry on top! Three of the four acres are covered in mature woods with a trail that leads to the river, and is permanently protected under a conservation easement—perfect for the buyer who values peace, privacy, and preservation. Generations to come will enjoy the serenity, wildlife will have a safe haven, and you'll have peace of mind knowing your wooded backdrop will remain untouched, supporting clean air, thriving habitats, and natural beauty forever.
