Detailed Description:
Welcome to one of Grand Rapids’ best kept secrets; this 5 bed, 2.5 bath 1960’s home is undeniably one of the most spacious and up-to-date homes in the area. It’s the perfect combination of value and comfort that is sure to satisfy those who are only satisfied with the best! Situated on a large double-sized corner lot on the southwest partition of the Lake Michigan/Marion intersection, this home boasts a meticulously maintained yard with a deck and covered entertainment area. This home is less than a 1.5 minute walk from the Rapid bus stop (see the link above to view a map/parcel layout) and only a few blocks from both Grand Valley’s Pew campus as well as both John Ball Park and Lincoln Park.
The open floor plan makes for a great living environment; all natural hardwood floors in the upstairs bedrooms add character to your home and present you with the opportunity to make the space your own. A large kitchen area is perfect for those that are sharing the space with others as well as for preparing large meals for the guests that are sure to want to see your new place. The dining room flows into both the kitchen and living room making entertainment easy.
In the winter you can relax in the warmth given off from your real wood fireplace in the living room. There are four large bedrooms upstairs (you’re through with those dorm-sized closets that they pass off as bedrooms) and one gigantic bedroom in the lower level that includes a walk-out to the covered area in the backyard.
There’s a two-stall attached garage perfect for those "mild Michigan winters" with additional parking on the street. Additionally there’s a large basement that’s both clean and well-lit; perfect for storage and other types of entertainment. There's also a good-sized laundry area here. The entire home is heated with baseboard heat which equates to lower heating bills and a more efficient, comfortable heat.
Available for move in August 1st; contact Nathan at 616.510.3513 for additional pictures, questions, or to set up a showing. Thanks for looking!
