If you're looking for a home that offers comfortable main-floor living, room to grow, and a location that keeps you close to everything while giving you the option for Traverse City or Kingsley School systems, this one deserves a look. Built in 2018 and meticulously maintained, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch has been thoughtfully cared for and offers a layout that works just as well for everyday life as it does for entertaining. The heart of the home is the open-concept kitchen, dining, and living area, with a spacious island kitchen creating a natural gathering space. Just off the dining area, a sliding door leads to an oversized covered porch that gives you even more room to relax and enjoy the outdoors. The main floor also offers the convenience of a spacious primary suite with a private ensuite, two additional bedrooms with great storage, and a dedicated laundry room with brand new washer and dryer. The lower level is where you'll find even more potential. With an egress window and plumbing already roughed in for a third full bathroom, there's a clear opportunity to finish the space and add meaningful living area and equity over time. An oversized attached 2-stall garage gives you plenty of room for vehicles, storage, and everything that comes with Northern Michigan living. And with Traverse City only 15 minutes away, plus the new Meijer and other everyday amenities just minutes from home, the location is hard to overlook. Well cared for, thoughtfully laid out, and positioned for both comfortable living today and future growth, this is the kind of home that's worth seeing in person.
