Discover comfortable, convenient living just minutes away from Michigan Tech and Houghton's historic, charming downtown. This home offers a level of privacy that the typical home doesn't and has plenty of character still ready to bring to life. As you enter the home you're greeted with ample natural light that showcases the beautiful wooden staircase leading upstairs. As you walk through the living room, you pass through the formal dining room where you can't help but notice the parquet flooring. Situated off the dining room is a spacious full bath. As you pass through the dining room, you enter the spacious kitchen with an attached mudroom/laundry room that has an additional half bath separate from the mudroom. The additional door in the half bath uncovers the sauna perfect for the cold Houghton winters. The second level has 3 bedrooms with a newly finished 4th bedroom on the 3rd level. This home is currently used as a rental and has tenants living in the home.
