This elevated brick home was one of the first homes built in the upper peninisula neighborhood of Wagener Terrace in 1936. Sitting on a quarter acre double lot, this spacious home has ample room indoors and out for family life or entertaining. The lot features mature camelia trees, azaleas, lilies, mexican dahlia, and gardenia bushes to name a few. The outdoor living spaces incude a wraparound front porch, brick patio in the backyard, and newly paved 110 foot long oyster shell driveway with a basketball hoop and space for two cars to park side by side. The newly sodded lawn is expansive and could easily accomodate the addition of a swimming pool. Beneath the home is a 6 ft basement with workbenches and space for your bikes and outdoor gear. Walking through the front door, you enter a large foyer which opens onto the light filled formal dining room with the original fireplace. Double bifold french doors separate the dining room from the foyer as well as the adjacent family room. From the family room, you enter the kitchen which features professional appliances, an eat in dining area, a separate butler's pantry with wet bar and laundry area. There is also a half bath off the kitchen next to the back door. The 4 bedrooms are all sunny and spacious. The master is downstairs with three closets and a newly renovated master bath. An additional bedroom and full bath are also downstairs. From the bedroom wing, you access the staircase leading to the second floor. The second floor features two bedrooms, great for children or overnight guests and an expansive common area, perfect for an office and additional family room. The exterior porch and trim are freshly painted and the entire home has been lovingly maintained. This upper peninsula neighborhood is a vibrant area which offers restaurants, breweries, playgrounds and beautiful Hampton Park all a short walk or bike ride away. A true gem, 879 Rutledge is a rare offering of space, history, and a gardener's masterpiece within the downtown city limits.
