Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac just a 10-minute walk to downtown Petoskey, this 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath home is perfectly sized for a large family - with space to gather together and room to find privacy. Step through the front door into a cathedral foyer that sets the tone: move-in ready, beautifully updated, and full of warmth throughout. All new light fixtures add a fresh, polished feel throughout the home. The main floor flows from a living room with gas fireplace through a kitchen - complete with sage cabinetry, granite counters, and a new oven and refrigerator - with an adjacent flex space perfect as a breakfast nook or reading/lounge area, all open to the living room and kitchen. A dining area and large family room lead to the back deck, with main floor laundry, a large mudroom, and a half bath rounding out the main level. The 2.5-car garage entrance connects directly to the mudroom for easy everyday access - with that extra half bay offering ideal space for storage, gear, or a workshop. A wide stairway under the cathedral ceiling leads to the upper level, where the cathedral ceilings continue into the hallway, giving the space a bright, open feel. The primary suite features a newly updated bath with terrazzo tile floors, double vanity, bidet, and walk-in shower, plus a custom California Closets system. Two additional bedrooms and a newly updated full bath complete the upper floor. The finished walkout lower level offers a large recreation room that opens to the backyard at ground level, a bedroom, full bath, private sauna, and utility room with a new boiler and water heater. Outside, enjoy a generous deck, three-season gazebo, fenced yard, and perennial gardens that are as beautiful as they are easy to maintain - all backing to NCMC protected property. A game trail runs just beyond the back fence, where deer sightings are a welcome bonus. Nearby schools and all that downtown Petoskey has to offer are just a short walk away.
