Gas fireplace in living room. Original hardwood floors have been protected through the years by carpeting. There is currently a first floor master bedroom and potential for creating a second floor master—the second floor lav could easily be extended into the current walk-in closet and the adjacent 11x11 attic could be converted to a huge walk-in closet. The house is surrounded by beautiful landscaping—a majestic birch in the front and cute arbor seating (Ann’s Arbor) out back. Furnace and AC installed in 2014. Centrally located between schools. Waterfront park, pool and marina access is free for residents. Easy access to freeways and about 15 minutes from Downtown. A short walk to the lake. Please remove shoes or use shoe covers by the front door.
