Just down a country road in Bath Township, on a dead-end street, is a serene sanctuary on 19.38 acres. A tranquil location, it has an abundance of wildlife, woods, a spring-fed pond, and premier hunting opportunities. It is adjacent to the MSU Corey Marsh Ecological Research Station (CMERC) with its five miles of groomed walking and cross-country skiing trails and the Rose Lake Recreation areas are nearby . The location feels far removed from civilization yet is less than fifteen minutes to Meijer or Monticello Market, or twenty minutes to the edge of MSU campus or Eastwood Town Center. A complete renovation and addition to the 1966 home was completed in 2006. Its Craftsman-style design has charming simplicity with custom details and timeless quality finishes. There is ample evidence of intention and thoughtfulness throughout. The home capitalizes on the amazing views of the pond, gardens, woods, and nature to those seeking a peaceful, beautiful, and private setting. The main floor offers 2350 sf of living space as well as a cozy sunroom tucked off to the side of the home with 150 sf to enjoy seasonally. The main floor has two bedrooms and two full baths, including a spa-like bathroom retreat and walk-in closet connected to the master bedroom.

The hallway also takes you to the sunroom and back door where you will find a two-tiered brick paver patio. Outdoors, the rock walls and terraced gardens attract many butterflies, birds, and pollinators. The walk-out lower level of the home has 1900 sf of finished living space and features two bedrooms and a third full bath. The lower-level has solid pine two-panel interior doors and built in pine cabinetry in the family room.
