Classic, turn-key Milwood Cape Cod in Kalamazoo's sought-after Golden Triangle. This well-maintained 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home blends timeless charm with modern updates throughout.
Walk through the key-stone arched entry door to a spacious living area adorned with vintage crown molding. A bright dining area with open shelving and a slider door connects to the modernized kitchen, with skylight, stainless steel appliances, soft-close cabinetry, tiled back-splash, and under-cabinet lighting. A mudroom connects the back entry to the kitchen. A recently renovated full bathroom with ample closet space and laundry chute and two bedrooms complete the main floor. Refinished hardwood floors run through the main level and continue upstairs through two second story bedrooms.
The basement offers a large bonus room, a bathroom, a workspace wired with 240V outlet, and a dedicated laundry and storage space.
Outside, enjoy a backyard oasis with two-tone Trex deck with integrated lighting, perennial gardens, an extended two-car garage with additional workspace and cabinetry, a carport (utilized as a covered patio space), and a storage shed.
The 0.25 acre lot backs up to the Milwood fields and elementary school, for additional green space and privacy, while only minutes from I-94, Portage, shopping, and downtown.
Located within the Kalamazoo Promise zone, and walkable to Milwood Elementary, Milwood Middle School, and Loy Norrix High School. Roof and mechanicals are newer.

What the owner loves about this home
This has been a beautiful home to raise a child in. The neighborhood is friendly, safe, and beautiful to walk through during each different season. Very convenient location to get around the area!
The backyard has been special to me--hearing the birds over coffee in the morning, entertaining from the deck, and having bonfires among the fireflies and hydrangeas during the summers. The deck is super low maintenance as well!
The original accents of the house--the crown molding, the built-ins, the arches--keep the house from being cookie-cutter--while the renovations keep it functional and stylish.
Finally, lots of additional space between the extended garage and the basement provides plenty of room for both business and hobbies!
