Remax Platinum Online

Love Victorian style and history? Look no further than this gorgeous two story five bedroom, four and a half bath, 3300 square foot home. The secluded ten acre property is about five miles south of Howell’s city center and west of Coon Lake off of a paved road.

Charm? Loads of it, with lovely landscaped gardens front and back plus a trellised gateway to the path leading to the covered porch. Built in 1995, the custom historic floor plan gives this home that treasured 1800s look. The home includes a mother-in-law suite with a private entrance, with a bedroom, living room, full ceramic bath and a small kitchen. The suite's walls are non-bearing and can be removed to convert into a Great Room and wet bar. The large deck out back is perfect for parties and entertaining or just sitting and enjoying the view.

Comfort? You bet, with a two-zoned forced air furnace and central air, a generous kitchen with new custom granite counters, oak cabinets, a dining room and a central hall with oak flooring. The 500 square foot master bedroom suite has a lovely all ceramic bath. Angled ceilings in the second floor bedrooms make each room unique. An airy two story foyer and open stairways add to its charm. The living room boasts crown and dental moldings and a custom two-tiered mantel above the fireplace. In addition, custom bookshelves, a gas fireplace and ceramic tile are featured in the walkout with a marble bath and plenty of windows for natural light.

Convenience? Definitely, with beautiful appliances, a vinyl exterior, motion detector floodlights, a water irrigation system, a 300-bottle wine cellar, a cedar closet, shelving and oak cabinet storage in the three car garage which has an electric opener. The garage is also naturally climate controlled and has an epoxy floor and ceramic tile, plus a canning or brew kitchen! Add to that an invisible fence for dogs, plus the property meets all requirements for a land split.

Need more bonuses? Wiring for a whole house fan is in place, the walkout is completely plumbing-ready for a kitchen, the under-deck area is wired for electricity and if the sump pump goes out, the walkout will not flood. This is not a foreclosed home, since the owners are planning a move out of the country and are motivated to sell! Run, don’t walk, to see this gorgeous property that is in pristine condition for showing. Consider the possibilities for a bed and breakfast business, or bask in the roominess all to yourselves.

Park yourself on the porch and enjoy this beautiful home!
