About This Home

As of May 2017

The location of this home couldn’t be any better. On the hill in Saugatuck and a very short walk to downtown in a major plus. This home is currently used a rental property but could easily be converted to your full time home or personal vacation home. There are four bedrooms and two full bathrooms along with a large gathering kitchen. The kitchen cabinetry and appliances are newer and provide ample storage and food prep and cooking spaces. Two separate living areas complete the main floor. Besides the location, another bonus is the studio/guest quarters above the oversized two car garage. This contains a full bath and can be used for your guests or personally for art studio or the like. All this is very close to the attractions, restaurants, and galleries of Saugatuck and Douglas as well as Lake Michigan and the marinas along the Kalamazoo River.
