You will appreciate how special this home is the moment you step onto this property. Outstanding curb appeal and quality updates throughout. This ranch is located in a sub that is one of the Rochester Hills favorites. Every home is custom built and offers lots of character and charm. A variety of older and newer homes surrounded by beautiful trees everywhere you look. An up north feel with easy access to downtown Rochester. A very long list of upgrades that reaches more than $338k total invested. Just a few of these are a lifetime metal roof, new whole house generator, sunshine insulated windows with built in blinds, 3 fireplaces (2 gas, 1 wood). Newer white and granite kitchen with stainless built-in appliances, spacious snack bar/island and built in serving banquet bar for entertaining. All open to the dining/living room combo. The real "Deal Clincher" is the custom 4 season sun room. You won't want to leave once you sit in this room surrounded by woods and soothing views. Huge finished basement offers 2nd kitchen, possible office, full bath, egress window to make it a legal mother-in-law or guest suite. Trex decking on back deck and front porch. Spacious breezeway connecting to the 2 car garage and there is a 2nd garage at the back of the property. Highly rated Rochester School district. I dare you to find a more PRISTINE home!
