A new roof was replaced in 2020 after a hail storm. The basement is partially finished with a workout area on one side, and a place for kids to hangout on the other. The basement has full size windows facing the river, so it doesn’t feel like a basement. The home was built by Moeller Builders, one of the best builders in the state of Michigan. The property did not flood in 2020 and has a Letter of Map Amendment (LOMA), a FEMA document that confirms a property is on natural ground above the Base Flood Elevation (BFE). The builder and I built the home several feet above the 500 yr flood plain. Showings by appointment ONLY starting Nov 1. The home is occupied so please do not just show up. I will post by owner this fall/winter and will list with an agent in March that’s already been selected. The price in March will go up to cover agent fees. No solicitations please.
