So much space here - inside and out! Lovingly and masterfully built, this cherished home on 12 acres is available for the very first time. Complete with a HUGE detached garage (with an apartment!) in addition to the 2-car attached garage, there is so much storage available here. Highlights of the home include bay views from the full-length deck, and impressive foyer entrance with stained-glass accents flanking the door, a large peninsula and lots of cabinet space in the kitchen, generous storage and built-ins throughout, two fireplaces, and a main-floor primary suite with a private bath and sliders to the back patio. Upstairs are two more bedrooms, each with it's own private balcony, and a full bath. The lower level is clean and dry and features a large walk-in root cellar (perfect for canning!), and a wood boiler that is hooked into the forced air system as a secondary fuel source. The detached 3-car garage is stick-built with 3 overhead doors and an apartment at the front, with a kitchenette, murphy bed, a 3/4 bath, and wood stove. Additional outbuildings include a garden shed and a tree house. The 12-acre piece offers excellent privacy for the house along with plenty of room to roam along with apple and peach trees. All this is just minutes to schools, shopping, and everything that Traverse City has to offer!
