About This Home
As of October 2019A mid-century modern lover's dream, this home's character will be appreciated by anyone who wants to tap into Grand Rapids desirable and booming west side. Mixing up the old and the new with updates throughout, the home is warm and inviting and located on a mature sycamore tree-lined street with sidewalks and meticulously cared for brick homes. Three bright bedrooms and two full baths leave space for everyone to stretch out. Original hardwood and tile crawl across the home, including a large gas fireplace on the main level, a seasonal porch off the dining area and a wet bar in the basement: a bonus room with another gas fireplace that can be easily be used for entertainment or as another quiet family room. This home also includes a large laundry room with access to the back of the house, leading to a large fenced-in back yard that is ideal for your dog and children. The view behind the house is park-like undeveloped land that will stay quiet for as long as you live there. In addition to the 2 and 1/2 stall garage with work bench and cabinets is another 1 stall garage behind the house, perfect for a motorcycle, studio, storage or any of your favorite toys. Newer central air, water heater, refrigerator, dishwasher, oven and recently updated electrical system. A hidden gem tucked back into a quiet corner, you will love being just minutes away from downtown Grand Rapids with quick access to the highways, a walk to gorgeous Richmond Park or just a bike ride down to a hopping Bridge Street. You'd be sorry to miss this...come see this jewel for yourself!
