What a beauty! They just don't make them like this one anymore! In one of Ann Arbor's established and sought after neighborhoods, you'll find that this home is perfect for cozy gatherings around the high-efficiency Morso wood stove, surrounded by well-insulated windows and walls for seasonal comfort. Your own private tiny-forest flora-and-fauna reserve on a 60' by 210' (0.3 acres) lot -- perfect for the garden enthusiast -- yet only two miles from U-M and downtown Ann Arbor. All in a mid-century Cape Cod home with great bones in the desirable, walkable/bikeable, quiet Pattengill School neighborhood, just 1-1/2 blocks from the Packard bus line and its urban amenities. Paved patio behind the house and flagstone patio at the back of the property for shaded seclusion. (Did we mention the authentic 1950s fallout shelter beneath the one-car detached garage?) With two bedrooms (or office and sitting room) and one full bath down, and a master suite up (two large closets--one walk-through, full bath, and bedroom). Living room, dining room--both with large energy-efficient (argon gas) picture windows to enjoy the views, and an efficient kitchen (with quartz countertops & updated floor) round out the first floor. Beautiful vintage hardwood oak floors add charm to the upper two floors. Complete with mid-century bar in the partially-finished basement, with work space, along with a full laundry area also rounds out the basement amenities. Bathroom is prepped for basement, and there is a whole house surge protector in basement Thoughtfully updated with key mechanical upgrades, including a high-efficiency gas furnace and AIC (2021) and water heater (2022). Major infrastructure improvements include a new sewer line to the street and professionally corrected grading for a dry basement. These investments offer peace of mind for years to come. The house has been lovingly cared for sellers, who are the second owners since it was built in 1950. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Ann Arbor charm. Come see why it has been so loved
