About This Home

Country setting. Smart layout. Space where it actually matters. This 4-bedroom, 2-bath home on over an acre offers a layout that works for real life. The split-bedroom design places the primary suite on its own side of the home with a private bath, while three additional bedrooms and a second full bathroom are positioned on the opposite end, ideal for separation, guests, or multi-generational living. The main living area is open and functional, connecting the kitchen, dining, and family room into one cohesive space. A gas fireplace anchors the family room, while a separate front living room gives you flexibility for a second gathering space, office, or quiet retreat. Off the back of the home, the insulated three-season room (200+ sq ft) extends your living space and overlooks the backyard, a great spot to unwind or entertain with a view of your property. Outside, the powered workshop with a cement floor adds real utility for storage, hobbies, or projects. The newer metal roof offers long-term durability and peace of mind. Located in a quiet country setting with convenient access to Lapeer and Frankenmuth, this property delivers the space, layout, and flexibility that buyers are actively searching for right now.
