Property Description

A rare find in the heart of South Lyon!

Step inside to a bright living room with a sunny bay window and a pass-through to the spacious kitchen, which features a large island with breakfast bar and its own side entrance. A dedicated office with private exterior access makes an ideal space for remote work or a home-based business, while a tucked-away bedroom offers quiet main-level living. You'll also find a fullbathroom, laundry, and a flexible mudroom that could easily transform into a formal dining area. Upstairs - accessible both from inside the home and through a private exterior entrance - you'll find a loft-style family room, two additional bedrooms, a second full bathroom, and bonus finished space perfect for play or storage. Car lovers and hobbyists will fall in love with the 24x36 two-story carriage house style garage, complete with a 4-ft foundation, 8-ft insulated doors, 220V and 30 AMP service, and rough plumbing for future water and sewer hookup. All of this on a spacious corner lot just steps from parks, schools, shopping, and dining with quick access to major highways. Bring your tools and Pinterest boards - this South Lyon gem is ready for its next chapter!
