A timeless treasure awaits its next chapter in a sought-after Northeast Grand Rapids location. This 2-owner home, with its solid, good bones, provides the perfect canvas for your vision of modern living. Imagine morning coffee on the enclosed front porch, lazy weekends in the oversized family room, or a culinary adventure in the spacious kitchen. Practical upgrades, including brand-new plumbing with a 10-year warranty and other mechanicals professionally passing with good health, offer peace of mind, so you can focus on the fun stuff... like picking out new paint colors and dreaming of a kitchen that would make a magazine jealous. Lots of storage! The main floor primary bedroom with an attached half-bath offers easy living, while a bonus upper-level flex space provides the perfect home office, media room, or gaming haven. With a large fenced backyard and a full basement poised for expansion, this isn't just a house... it's the blank slate for your future. Rarely seen... priced below SEV... means huge opportunity. Are you ready to move in at close and write your story?
