    Striking luxury metal roofExpansive new andersen windows
    Located in the highly sought-after Historic District of downtown Traverse City on iconic 5th Street, this extensively renovated 3/4 bedroom, 4.5 bath residence—including a substantial addition—beautifully combines historic charm with upscale modern finishes and is offered below recent appraisal. Thoughtfully redesigned from the studs out, improvements include all new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, and air conditioning systems, along with expansive new Andersen windows. A desirable main-floor primary suite offers comfort and convenience, while the upper level includes two additional bedrooms, one serving as a private en suite ideal for guests. Covered front and rear porches add warmth and character throughout the home. The lower level offers a separate exterior entrance with potential for a second kitchen area and a legal studio apartment for rentals of 30 days or longer. Completing the property is a striking luxury metal roof. Seller is a licensed real estate agent in the State of Michigan.
