This modern, open-floorplan home located directly across the street from Cass Lake is full of surprises—much larger than it appears from the outside! Step inside to discover a bright and inviting interior designed for today’s lifestyle. The updated kitchen is a standout, featuring crisp white cabinetry, granite countertops, custom backsplash, stainless steel appliances, skylights, laminate flooring, and a large pantry.
Upstairs, two bedrooms have been thoughtfully combined into an oversized primary suite with three closets, skylights, and space for a home office or workout area. Both full baths have been fully updated. Major improvements include a newer roof with transferable warranty, furnace, water heater, and windows. The unfinished basement offers a laundry space, ample storage and future living space potential.
Enjoy a spacious, privacy-fenced backyard with a large deck and 20’ remote-controlled awning with lighting—perfect for entertaining and creating a comfortable and inviting space day or night. Just a short walk away is your private, fenced lake access park that includes a manicured lawn, shade trees, sandy beach, and easy access near the sandbar to launch your kayak or paddleboard onto Cass Lake, Oakland County’s largest lake, known for its spectacular -day 4th of July fireworks.
Outdoor enthusiasts will love being just 6 minutes from Dodge Park #4 and less than a mile from the Clinton River Bike Trail. Conveniently located near M-59/Highland Road, Orchard Lake Road, and only 2 miles from Telegraph, commuting is effortless. Situated close to Keego Harbor, you’ll enjoy an easy walk to popular restaurants, plus quick access—just 16 minutes to Birmingham and 35 minutes to downtown Detroit.
