Builders own home shows pride of ownership and attention to detail. TONS of extra details in the design and finish quality. What an amazing opportunity to own this better than new walk-out ranch in Forest Hills school district and with low Grand Rapids Township taxes. The lot had a steep drop off so the architect suggested the foundation wall to go down 10 feet instead of the average 42 inch. No worries about movement and with that design the home is perched over a small pond that offers breathtaking views and sunsets. The gourmet kitchen is enormous and features cabinets with crown molding, a HUGE center island with snack bar, quartz countertops, ceramic tile backsplash, large custom hood over the stove, pot filler, stainless steel farm sink, walk in pantry with custom built shelvin g and booze block counter, plus all stainless steel appliances are included. There is a large expandable dining area with built-in cabinets and dry bar. Living room is ultra comfortable with a gas fireplace, tray ceiling, wood shelving, oversize windows, and sliding glass door to the covered TREX deck. Owners suite boasts another tray ceiling and it is plenty big for a king size bed and all your other furniture. Bathroom with double vanity plus makeup area all with quartz counters, ceramic tile flooring, shower with built-in niches for soaps, a tiled seat, and custom glass euro-doors. 2nd bedroom on main floor plus a 2nd full bathroom. The mudroom entry from the garage has built in lockers, coat closet, and access to a half bath and laundry area which has more cabinets, wash sink, plus washer and dryer are included. The walkout level is currently unfinished but partially framed for bedroom number three and four. It is plumbed for a 3rd full bathroom. There is plenty of room for a recreation room and kitchenette or wet bar is plumbed too. HVAC is completely run. Service garage door for yard equipment or storing outdoor furniture in the winter. The heated and insulated 3 stall garage also has 12x20 flex space behind the 3rd stall. This could be used as an office, extra storage for boat or bikes, or a craft/hobby room. Garage has hot/cold water, floor drains, and doors with windows for natural light. Pull down the staircase and floor is decked in attic for additional storage. A few other upgrades to mention: North Star windows!!! Luxury vinyl flooring throughout most of the main floor. Impressive lighting upgrades such as uplights, down lights, tray lights, it is awesome!!! You are greeted by a large covered front porch that is warm and welcoming. The exterior is super attractive and boasts hardie batten siding with LP panels on front of home, vinyl siding on back and sides, porch is azek PVC(ALL LOW MAINTENANCE!!). Three metal dormers to add dimension and a touch of class. Black metal gutters and downspouts all around the home. Mature landscaping. This home lives comfortably and could even work for a condo buyer looking for everything on one floor but no neighbors right on top of you and NO ASSOCIATION. COME SEE IT TODAY!!!
