47 Homestead Court Traverse City, MI 49686

Easy, Old Mission living! Located less than 2 miles from the base of the Peninsula, this fabulous elevated ranch is just minutes from Bryant Park on West Bay, the Denos Museum, Northwestern Michigan College, and an endless list of other downtown Traverse City amenities. This 3 bedroom / 2 bathroom home with attached 2 car garage is located on a gently sloping parcel (0.43 acres) in a charming subdivision off of Center Road. Mature hardwood trees shade the fenced backyard, which backs-up directly to the beautiful Pelizzari Natural Area: a 62-acre preserve maintained by Peninsula Township and the Grand Traverse Regional Land Conservancy. Inside, the main floor living area overlooks a new back deck toward a countryside view beyond. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living space which flows into a delightful dining area and updated kitchen with granite counter-tops, ample storage, a built-in bench, and newer stainless steel appliances. Three bedrooms and one full bath with new walk-in shower round out this functional main floor plan. Downstairs, the walkout basement is partially finished to include a second living room with built-in bookshelves, a non-conforming fourth bedroom, and a bath. A brand new electric cedar sauna is an added bonus feature of this residence - enjoy a soothing sauna session in the privacy of your own home after hiking or cross country skiing on more than 3 miles of trails just outside your back door! This wonderful Old Mission listing is the best of many worlds - smart and easy - don't miss out on this opportunity! *Additional features include newer septic field (2018) and a newer AC unit.
