A ranch on a quiet paved road, with nearly an acre, that's less than 10 years old! Located in the sought-after Emerald Glen neighborhood that has just 33 homes and plenty of common area, including paths around the beautiful Jewel Lake which allows for fishing and kayaking. The vaulted ceiling adds to the spaciousness of the open layout from the granite kitchen to the great room. A home that's fairly traditional in design, but with really intelligent nuances, like how two of the bedrooms have views of the lake, while the 3rd bedroom/office overlooks the covered front porch. The more you look at the home, the more you see how intentional everything was, with the large "drop zone" coming in from the garage, with the stairs down to the basement being along the wall to keep it open and expansive, already framed for easy finishing. Both the primary suite bathroom and other full bath have dual sinks so everyone has their space to get ready. The cement patio welcomes you to the backyard with lovely landscaping, where you're also likely to see your winged neighbors (bluebirds, hummingbirds, orioles) pay you a visit along with their bunny and deer friends. This home provides you with the peace that comes from being in the 'pure Michigan' region of pumpkin patches & cider mills, while still close enough to small towns, near the border of the Howell & Hartland School Districts that makes school of choice an option. Don't miss out on this one.
