About This Home

As of May 2025

If your wishlist includes a private, updated home, three car garage, room to roam, a walkout lower level with bonus living spaces, and bonus acreage all within 20 minutes of downtown Traverse City, this is the one. You'll love all seasons - a generous deck and firepit for summer, fall foliage galore, a fireplace and generous dining area for holiday gatherings, and watching the woods come to life in spring. Nearly every surface of the inside of this home has been updated within the past 3 years, which means it's move-in ready for summer exploring over your own acreage, or on miles of trails in the nearby VASA system. Courtade Elementary is a quick skip away, and grownups will love the easy commute into town, pickleball at Grace McDonald Park, and claiming hyperlocal status at Peegeos during the shoulder seasons. Don't miss this beauty!
