About This Home
As of October 2021This stunning home has it all including frontage on an all sports lake, an inground pool and 2.2 immaculately groomed acres! You will be wowed by the views as soon as you enter through the front door. The soaring ceiling in the main floor family room allows for amazing views of all that the backyard has to offer. The gourmet kitchen has new quartz countertops, a new backsplash, new DW, fridge and microwave, as well as a 6 burner gas Viking Range. The kitchen also has a butler's pantry, coffee nook, dining area and adjacent siting room with views of the lake. The main floor also features an office, FDR, and a large master suite with updated bathroom and views of the lake from the adjoining 4 season room with access to the new deck. The upper level has 3 spacious bedroom and 2 full baths and loads of closet space. The finished walkout level has a wet bar, rec room, 2nd office, 5th bedroom, full bath, exercise area and tons of storage space. There is also a new screened in porch that leads to the beautiful inground pool and firepit. So swim in your pool, or take a stroll down to the lake with your own private frontage where you can dock your pontoon at the new 50' vinyl dock that is included. (pontoon is not). Or sit in your screened in porch on a warm rainy summer night and enjoy the sounds of nature. This home offers a feeling of being away from it all, yet you are only minutes from all that the west side of Kalamazoo has to offer as well as a short drive to downtown Kalamazoo.
