This lovely updated ranch on a private 1.4 acre parcel is located in a beautifully wooded and highly desirable Long Lake neighborhood. Only 6 miles from downtown Traverse City, this location offers the best of two worlds: easy access to all Traverse City amenities, with the beauty and seclusion of countryside living. Most recently updated in 2014, this home boasts a modern open floor plan, with a gorgeous new kitchen and hickory hardwood flooring throughout. There are three bedrooms and two full bathrooms on the main floor (master bath, en-suite). All three bedrooms have been recently updated with contemporary features, including rustic ship-lap accents in the master bedroom and durable rubber floor tiles in the second bedroom (the ideal kids bedroom or office!). The lower level has been finished to included a bright second living room with egress window, wet bar, and entertainment area - excellent for football season or rainy-day play space. A fourth non-conforming bedroom has also been created in this lower living area. Two lower level accessory rooms remain unfinished, and accommodate a large workbench, mechanical equipment (nearly new!), and plenty of overflow storage space. Outside, this home is a summertime dream! A charming front porch greets guests, while a rear deck and gravel patio area provide comfortable outdoor living spaces. Dine outdoors adjacent to the kitchen and overlooking the spacious backyard, or relax in the lower patio area with family and friends. An attached, insulated/heated 2-car garage and large detached storage shed round out this listing's many desirable amenities. This is truly an excellent home; lovingly maintained by current owner for nearly 20 years, and entirely move-in ready. Don't miss it!
