Description

Great family home located in the Brighton school district but still in the township that provides a lower tax base and just around the corner from Costco for ease of shopping. Terrific location to get to US23. This home has a TON of history as you can just imagine. Built in 1840 and built to last. If this home could tell a story of it's history, what a story it would be. Come take a look at the great setting with a terrific back yard and a large deck over looking the yard.

Come take a look at the great setting with a terrific back yard and a large deck over looking the yard. The 2 car garage is an over sized garage giving you plenty of opportunity to create the workshop of your dreams. 1st floor master bedroom allows the bedrooms to be "split" which creates some quiet space when needed.
