This home just may be the opportunity you've been looking for! Sitting on 1.34 acres, this unique home has 6 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms on the main floor, plus an extra room and another full bath in the finished walkout basement. Need a lot of bedrooms? Check. Need to work from home? Check. Turn one side of this extensive ranch into a primary suite? Check and check. So many options! The large kitchen provides ample space for gathering and a laundry room off to the side means this house is perfect for single floor living. The view from the large picture windows is beautiful & peaceful as you look out on the attached parcel of land (K-11-21-300-026) giving you another 3.5 private partially wooded acres behind you. And here's the coolest thing about this whole property: It has a highly coveted ADU (accessory dwelling unit) that gives you even more flexibility. With around 975 sq ft, 2 bedrooms, a full bath with a walk-in shower, kitchen & laundry, and its own postal address, you could use it for multigenerational living (while maintaining some independence), a home office outside of the actual home to legitimately get work done, or as an investment property. Rent it out and have some of your mortgage covered! What could be better?! Well, it actually does get better. Because you can have all of this and you're basically next door to the Ypsilanti Public Library. You can walk to restaurants and grocery stories and to Ford Heritage Park. You get almost 5 acres but you're still on city water and sewer and paved roads. You're close to freeways, Ann Arbor, Saline, Canton, and 20 minutes from DTW. Come see for yourself!
