A rare find on 265 acre all sports Thompson Lake in Howell. Beautiful custom built brick ranch on nearly an acre with 111 ft of beach front and sandy bottom lake frontage. Magnificent sunrise views. This home has Riparian Rights. That's very important when buying lakefront. Updated kitchen w/granite countertops and granite sink. All appliances stay. Two wood burning fireplaces. Hardwood floors in main living area. Custom fabric pleated blinds w/top and bottom opening for added privacy in living area. Living rm and dining rm open to a massive cement deck w/hot tub room below. Oversize primary ensuite w/jetted tub, separate shower, and walk-in closet. Main bath has heated tub. Lake views from nearly every room. Main floor home office wi/walnut custom built-ins. Large finished lower level w/wood burning three sided fireplace, wet bar, full bath and cedar closet. Relax in your custom hot tub room off finished lower level w/beautiful lake views. Underground sprinkler system. Dock included. Pontoon boat and some furnishings are negotiable. Park and beach connected by a path just four houses away. And you’re just a few blocks from Historic Downtown Howell w/shopping, dining and festivals. Close to freeways, schools and shopping. Thompson Lake also has low housing density due to the fact the city of Howell owns almost a third of the lakefront and there's no DNR boat launch. Boat launch is controlled by the City of Howell. Residents have free access, but non-residents must pay. That translates into less boat traffic than many lakes in this part of Livingston County. Thompson Lake is dam controlled. That means the water levels can be adjusted for unusually wet springs or dry summers. This home also comes w/resident privileges for use of the city park and beach, as well as the boat launch. The beautifully wooded park has pavilions that are available to residents for family gatherings or other celebrations. All this and a home warranty too! Doesn’t get any better than that!
