3.01 private acres in the Forest Hills Public Schools district -- mostly old-growth woods, with the grounds around the home cleared and landscaped. Acreage like this is normally a commute. This one is ten minutes from downtown. Behind a freshly painted white brick exterior, 5,708 square feet are finished across three levels. Natural hickory floors run throughout the main and upper levels, including the staircase. A dual gas fireplace anchors both the living room and the primary bedroom, framed by a window onto a red-leaved Japanese maple. The renovated kitchen pairs white granite surfaces with a Miele 36-inch induction cooktop, a built-in beverage center with cooler, cabinetry to the ceiling, and custom-glide dish and spice racks. Storage is a theme throughout the house, including a full walk-in linen room. Five bedrooms and four baths include a spa-quality primary bath with radiant heated floors, a walk-in rain shower, and a private wooded view from the tub.The three-car garage holds both vehicles and gear. There are two distinct outdoor living spaces: a main-floor patio set beneath the boughs of the Japanese maple, and a second patio off the walk-out lower level, which was built for entertaining. Out the back door, a cleared rise sits ringed by mature hardwoods ??? usable open ground with full privacy from the neighbors on every side. Built in 2000. Public water and public sewer. Multi-zone HVAC replaced late 2023. High-speed internet available. Assigned to Collins Elementary (0.6 mi), Northern Hills Middle (1.7 mi), and Northern High (1.3 mi); buyer to verify assignment. This is not a house competing for attention on a crowded street. It's a private retreat, minutes from downtown Grand Rapids and the airport, and nearly invisible from the road.
