If you're looking for an investment property, or you want a large home, this is the house for you! This well maintained three story, six bedroom (plus one non-conforming), two and a half bath home is located on Putnam Street (US2) in Wakefield. When entering the home from the back screened patio, the country kitchen is the first room you see, and through the sliding doors is a lovely sunroom with an electric fireplace, perfect for sitting with your morning coffee. The formal dining room, with an eat-in kitchen option, will be sure to enhance your dining experiences. The large living room features a bay window and an electric fireplace with a room that has been added as a non-conforming bedroom, which could easily be converted back to living room space. The main bedroom is on the first floor and is quite cozy with the half log paneling on the walls. Four additional bedrooms are on the second floor, with one on the third floor. Both full bathrooms are on the first floor (one of which contains the washer and dryer), and there is also a new half bath in the basement. One of the bathrooms also features a walk-in tub. What makes this property unique is the historic charm, multiple porches, patios, and sunrooms, as well as a gazebo. At one point in time, there was a drive-in basement. A large two-car detached garage is great for vehicles and other storage, with a drive-through driveway - a nice feature for pulling a trailer or camper, or pulling out on to Putnam. A 12x8 tool shed is also in the back yard. If you like gardening, there are many possibilities in the yard already landscaped with paving stones, garden areas, and plots. This home is across the street from the Wakefield-Marenisco school system. Move-in ready! The possibilities are many for this property....Make it your home, a long-term or short-term rental, a bed and breakfast, etc. The guest house will be moved from the property. Wakefield is a charming, small town in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan where countless outdoor activities abound.
