Description

First time ever on the market! Originally built on a slab in 1947, this home was extensively renovated in 1996, including being lifted onto a block crawlspace and taken down to the studs. This well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath ranch is located in the quiet village of Gilford, offering small-town living with convenient access to surrounding communities — just 15 minutes to Caro, 20 minutes to Frankenmuth or Bay City, and approximately 30 minutes to Saginaw. A ramped rear entrance provides easy accessibility...First time ever on the market! Originally built on a slab in 1947, this home was extensively renovated in 1996, including being lifted onto a block crawlspace and taken down to the studs. This well-maintained 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath ranch is located in the quiet village of Gilford, offering small-town living with convenient access to surrounding communities — just 15 minutes to Caro, 20 minutes to Frankenmuth or Bay City, and approximately 30 minutes to Saginaw. A ramped rear entrance provides easy accessibility for all ages and mobility levels. Inside, you’ll find a bright, inviting layout with thoughtful sightlines connecting the mudroom, dining area, and front living room. The home is clean, comfortable, move-in ready, and designed with practical everyday living in mind. The fully fenced backyard features an oversized detached 2-car garage with an upper-level storage loft accessed by staircase (storage use only), plus an attached storage shed. Both the garage and shed received new roofs in 2025. Three additional storage sheds provide ample room for tools, equipment, hobbies, or seasonal items. The property is enhanced by mature fruit trees — including rare Japanese and Korean pear varieties — along with established Concord grapevines that add character and seasonal enjoyment. An added bonus: the property includes a recorded Wind Energy Easement providing an annual $1,000 participation payment. Please note the transfer is the responsibility of the new owner. Additional details available upon request. Call Nathan to schedule your showing today before this one is sold! Please note this is a cash or conventional sale only!
