Stunning Downtown Traverse City Setting and Home

The overall scenario doesn't get any better in a downtown Traverse City upscale home.  This home boasts one of the best locations that can be found downtown, with the ability to enjoy a park-like setting with towering trees, tiered landscaping, and Kids Creek winding its way through the North edge of this large lot.


At just under half an acre, this parcel is the largest in the Central neighborhood, and being a corner lot at the corner of 5th and Wadsworth, it feels even bigger. Plus, there are views of Boardman River and West Grand Traverse Bay from numerous spots on the property!



Built in 1894, this sunny house is bursting with character, yet tasteful updates make it a very comfortable home. The large, bright kitchen's white wood cabinets contrast new stainless steel appliances, and an adjoining dining room offers plenty of space for gatherings.




A private main floor master suite includes a bay window overlooking the creek and a pretty sitting area or office space. Upstairs are four large bedrooms, two with original 3/4" maple flooring, and all with ample closets. The downstairs walk-out level includes a cozy family room, additional kitchen and plenty of storage.



Other features: All new thermal windows, paint, carpeting, refinished wood floors, roof, exterior fiber-board siding, and a professionally designed stone patio, garden and front walkway. Need more room? A darling, converted carriage house sits on the banks of Kids Creek and features a kitchen area, bath, BR, large attic room, deck and perennial garden -- perfect for a mother-in-law suite or guest house. 

Take an easy walk to beaches, shops, festivals, theaters, and restaurants.  Burritt's Market, North Peak Brewery, and Folgarelli's Market and Wine Shop are quite literally a "stones throw"!  Click here to see more about this home.
