    **Seller requests that all offers to be submitted by Saturday 7/18 5:00 pm. All offers will be reviewed at that time.** Come see this beautiful home in Lapeer Heights subdivision! From the curb, you can tell it is a real show stopper. Inside you'll find classic touches of character such as built-ins and wood floors. But it also has the conveniences that make daily life pleasant such as a primary suite, a large built-in coat rack in the bonus room, finished basement space, 3 bathrooms, and Central AC! The kitchen is bright and well-lit and is positioned perfectly between the dining/living room space and the bonus room. The granite kitchen countertops and window at the sink looking out at the fenced back yard make this kitchen beautiful and functional. From the back yard you can enter directly into the back bonus room that has direct access to the half bathroom. With a first floor laundry, the extra finished room in the basement and a detached two car garage, this home has the things that make life easier. Some of the recent improvements include new Leaf Guard gutters, hot water heater, and more. What a value in Bentley Schools!
