    PRIME LOCATION! Beautiful and quaint country neighborhood and only a 10 minute drive to Escanaba or Gladstone! This home is perfect if you want the country feel and the convenience of being close to town! This house was built in 1971 and has been our family home ever since. It is located in a safe loving neighborhood that has created uncountable childhood memories. If you are a young family looking for a safe place to raise your children and develop new friendships or a couple that desires privacy and not having close neighbors right out your doorstep this is the home for you! Our 3 bedroom, 2 full bath corner lot home is on .61 acres of land with your own wooded land between you and your new neighbor. It is a great place to explore and play as a child or watch deer pass through during the evening hours on your deck. Our home is 1189 square feet, has an unfinished full basement, and 2+ attached garage with a circle paved driveway! The kitchen is very bright and clean with modern light fixtures, white cupboards, white appliances, in addition to a large window and patio sliding door allowing plenty of sunlight into the room. Off the kitchen you can walk out onto the beautiful deck and have access to natural gas for your summer grilling. The deck has been power washed and is ready to stain or paint to your preferred stain/color. You also have a sunsetter awning to enjoy some shade while relaxing on the sunny deck. If you choose to stay inside, you can enjoy the comfort of the central air in your new home on hot summer days. Steps away from the kitchen is your same floor laundry! Both bathrooms have been updated and remodeled. One bath has a walk-in tiled shower with a smooth sliding glass door, grab bars, and a spa rainfall shower head to relax in from a long day! Every room in the house has been freshly painted with new waterproof vinyl flooring throughout. Bedrooms have plenty of space for your belongings! You can fit your queen or king size bed, bedside table, and dressers in these spacious bedrooms. In addition, each has adequate closet space! One more perk, the home is in Escanaba Township! That means lower property taxes compared to other locations!!! Everything is ready for you to move right in! Let’s schedule your tour today! Preapproved buyers may schedule a showing by appointment. Give me a call today (906-two80-ten48) to schedule your tour! (Address is actually Gladstone-- for some reason it shows Escanaba.)
