Welcome Home! Discover comfort and character of this this charming four-bedroom, two-bath home offers the perfect blend of classic charm and everyday functionality. The spacious kitchen is ideal for family gatherings and entertaining, with a dedicated dining room just steps away. The cozy living room is currently carpeted but hides beautiful original hardwood floors underneath. Upstairs, the original split staircase adds a touch of uniqueness — branching left and right to reveal three bedrooms and a full bath. A convenient main-floor bedroom and bathroom make this layout ideal for any household. Enjoy two covered porches—one enclosed, one open — perfect for your morning coffee or quiet evenings outdoors. The property sits peacefully on the edge of town, giving you the best of both worlds: Bad Axe’s quality city water and a touch of nature with frequent wildlife sightings. The backyard offers excellent privacy, while the side yard often produces morel mushrooms — no hunting trip required! Out front, a beautiful birch tree serves as a natural landmark and a timeless way to mark your children’s growth through the years. A two-and-a-half-car garage provides plenty of room for vehicles, tools, and outdoor equipment.
