About This Home

As of May 2023

A rare opportunity! A warm, gracious and well-preserved historic preservation awarding winning home tucked on a 1/2 acre + secluded lot on a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of charming Howell. This spacious home with well-portioned rooms has a flexible floor plan for multi-generational living or rental (separate metered utilities) alongside a 4 to 5 bedroom single-family floor plan. Original hardwood floors, smooth plaster walls, architectural detail along with 9 ft ceilings on first level, along with the high-end replacement windows, newer mechanicals, new roof (2012), two-story carriage house and freshly painted exterior makes this a remarkably value priced find. Unwind on the front porch swing while enjoying the live music from the historic courthouse and the lovely church carillon. Steps away from the farmer's market and an easy stroll to Thompson Lake, historic library, downtown shopping and dining. Easy access to I-96 and M-59.
