SOMEWHERE IN TIME ~ WHERE YOUR NEXT CHAPTER BEGINS. Artistic expressions and an abundance of folklore give way to Americana at its best. Built in 1903 this two-story home was smartly positioned to enjoy beautiful sunrises at dawn and stunning sunsets at dusk. The copper-ceilinged front porch provides a perfect place to do absolutely nothing other than soak up the sun or stay dry while watching it rain. With approximately 1850 square feet of history and nostalgia this beauty offers 3 bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, a main floor laundry, a Michigan basement, a back-entrance mud room, and a 2.5 car garage. You will find a creative aesthetic woven through-out the light-filled spaces within the parlor, dining, and living rooms. The original paneled pocket-door, wood floors, baseboards, doors and window trim adorn this home top-to-bottom and left-to-right. At the base of the wood staircase, a custom, stained-glass and illuminated newel post lights your way to the second story. An architecturally dramatic 1880?s style, hand-crafted, leather belt-and-pulley ceiling-fan system makes a wide reach across the space and the free-standing ?Thelin Parlour 3000 Direct Vent Gas Heater? will warm both the home and your soul. The kitchen is sun-drenched by a southern-facing sliding-glass-door and window wall that leads to a private deck surrounded by lush foliage and fountains. For your convenience the kitchen appliances and the washer and dryer will stay. Upstairs all three bedrooms are nicely sized with the owner?s bedroom being much more than expected by having a beamed cathedral ceiling and skylights and located just a step or two from the bathroom. The Michigan basement feels clean and dry with fresh paint and a B-Dry Basement System installed long ago. Currently served by radiant hot water heat and a well and septic system there is city water available at the road. The 2.5 car garage has 220v electrical plus a propane furnace that could be converted to natural gas if desired. The lot m
