About This Home
As of July 2024This is a one-of-a-kind house that has to be experienced to be appreciated. Outwardly it is charming and in a beautiful natural setting; inside the possibilities are endless. The house began in the late '20s as an English Tudor-style cottage, its first owner a botany professor. In the '70s original and unusual expansions were made and the lot was enlarged. It is extremely cozy in winter with a glorious large fireplace in the living room (there is another one upstairs) defined by beautiful Portuguese tiles. The living room is large and open to both the front and the very private back of the house. There is a lovely dining room that also looks out to the woods behind, and at least three bedrooms as well as two full and two half-bathrooms on the first floor. Any of the bedrooms could be used as a study or office. The back features two brick and garden terraces behind the house. The university-owned forest behind the house is a seasonally-changing lush landscape with many birds and more than occasional deer. One can move effortlessly to the outdoors which makes warm weather living in this house a delight. Above the attached garage is a large undeveloped space which could be a magnificent studio, and below is a basement as large as the house itself filled with many different spaces for recreation, a work shop, and other areas for the new owners' use. There are a number of possible configurations in this house - there is space on the 2nd floor for a "mother in law" apartment or separate quarters for a nanny - with a full bedroom, a bathroom, living room area, and a small kitchen. The house has a great flow for entertaining - a large and small kitchen adjoin the dining room and there is a butler's pantry and laundry room nearby. Low Road is a quiet road with only four houses, high on a hill, beautiful in all seasons - and quite unusual for an urban setting. The lot is large - about 3/4 acres. A great area for dog walking too. Minutes away from Western Michigan University, Kalamazoo College, and less than 1.5 miles from downtown Kalamazoo. KALAMAZOO PROMISE!
