About This Home

As of January 2019

Welcome home to this 2.1 acre hidden gem within the Kalamazoo city limits! Enter through the large, open, eat-in kitchen, that flows into the Great Room with a gas-log fireplace; 12ft vaulted ceilings, a passive solar heating system that's thru your wall of 8 ft windows. This contemporary 3 bedroom home has been well maintained and cared for: a new A/C, 2 electrical boxes, plumbing, furnace, and wood floors. The old caretaker's home as it was called in the 1860's, has been completely remodeled all the way down to the studs. So feel free to drive up and bring your buyers through the roundabout paved driveway that has a new 2 car garage and the 2 wooded acres a fenced in dog kennel and yard that's great for entertaining. You'll love the charm and uniqueness of this very special home!
