Located in the highly desirable Bay Ridge neighborhood, this home is anything but ordinary! Upon entering you are greeted by Brazilian Cherry hardwood flooring throughout the main floor. A vaulted ceiling, floor to ceiling windows and a superb light fixture highlight the space currently used as an office, but which could be a formal dining room. A half bath and mudroom with built in bench and cabinets offer family and entertaining convenience. The Chef’s kitchen with white cabinetry and black granite countertops offer abundant storage and a modern clean feel. A ten-foot center island, stainless steel appliance package including a double oven, and magnificent chrome and crystal light and magnificent chrome and crystal light fixtures is the perfect entertaining hub. The kitchen is open to the dining room with dry bar, matching light fixtures and wall of windows and leads into the family room with gas log fireplace. Also off of the open dining area is a living room featuring floor to ceiling stone fireplace surround, numerous windows, dual ceiling fans and 12-foot sliding French doors. The upper level offers a master suite with generous closet and newly renovated bathroom with granite dual vanity, soaking tub and oversized glass shower. A second oversized bedroom with walk-in closet; two additional bedrooms; and two more full baths - one with double vanity- along with hall laundry complete this level. The basement features a large rec room, two craft rooms or offices, full bathroom and good-sized unfinished storage area. Outside you'll find an extremely large, private, fully fenced rear yard - unusual for Texas Township homes - a huge composite deck - perfect for entertaining or families; private hot tub area; storage shed, underground sprinkling, and raised-bed garden area. New furnace, central air, 75 gallon water heater along with loads of custom upgrades and updates, Portage Schools and more make this a must see! Seller is licensed REALTOR in the State of Michigan.
