Escape to your own private nature retreat with this impressive contemporary ranch set on more than four scenic acres with 75 feet of frontage along the Saline River. Perfectly positioned just minutes from downtown Saline, Ann Arbor, I-94, and US-23, this property offers the rare combination of peaceful seclusion and everyday convenience. Inside, a spacious open floorplan is designed to showcase the surrounding countryside views while providing comfortable spaces for both daily living and entertaining. The dramatic main living area features soaring cathedral ceilings, expansive windows, and abundant natural light. The open-concept layout includes a generous living room, spacious dining area, and well-appointed kitchen with ample cabinetry and counter space, newer stainless-steel appliances, and a center island with breakfast bar seating. The dining area and primary suite both offer direct access to the rear deck, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Tucked away on one side of the home, a private office provides an ideal work-from-home space, while the adjacent laundry/mud room connects to the oversized attached two-car garage with abundant storage for vehicles, tools, and recreational equipment. All three bedrooms are thoughtfully grouped together on the opposite side of the home. The primary suite serves as a peaceful retreat with deck access, two generous closets, and a private full bath. Two additional bedrooms share a second full bathroom. The partially finished lower level offers a large recreation or family room with plenty of flexibility for future expansion, while the unfinished portion provides excellent storage, workshop space, and utilities. Major updates within the last five years include the roof, furnace, and leaf gutter guards. Outside, enjoy your own private stretch of the Saline River. Preserve the natural habitat and serene wooded setting, or create your own riverside getaway for fishing, wading, kayaking, and paddling. With woods, water, and sweeping country views right outside your door, this exceptional property delivers the best of both worlds - peaceful country living with easy access to every modern convenience.
