Welcome to 5226 Forest Valley, a stunning colonial home set in one of Clarkston’s most desirable neighborhoods, known for its serene wooded lots and estate-sized properties. Nestled on a picturesque 1.45-acre walk-out lot, this custom-built home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated over time.
Designed with the guidance of a well-known Clarkston interior designer, the home features timeless finishes and a layout that blends functionality with style. Recent updates include a newer furnace, A/C, humidifier, on-demand hot water system, full Culligan water softener system, driveway, lighting, and plumbing fixtures. Over the last seven years, the kitchen and powder room were beautifully remodeled, now showcasing a brand-new double oven, dishwasher, and refreshed cabinetry. Additional improvements made over the past decade include a new roof, wood flooring, fireplace, interior and exterior paint, landscaping, and a laundry room remodel.
The inviting wrap-around front porch and expansive composite deck create perfect spaces for relaxing or entertaining while taking in the peaceful, wooded surroundings. The walk-out basement is unfinished and offers endless possibilities for future living space, already plumbed and ready for your personal touch.
Located just minutes from I-75, premier shopping, dining, and within the award-winning Clarkston school district. You’ll also enjoy walkable access to Pine Knob for concerts and events, with the Pine Knob Golf Course and several others just a short drive away. Plus, you're just moments from downtown Clarkston — a charming, historic village known for its boutique shops, cozy cafés, award-winning restaurants, seasonal festivals, and small-town warmth with upscale flair. This is Clarkston living at its finest—schedule your tour today.
