Features

Step into the character and craftsmanship of this charming 1922 brick-and-shake home, where traditional details, thoughtful updates and timeless curb appeal create a warm first impression.

A classic covered front porch welcomes you in and sets the tone for a home filled with the kind of personality and solid construction that newer homes simply cannot replicate.

Inside, original wood floors, generous room sizes and a traditional layout offer comfortable living with plenty of flexibility. Natural light fills the home and highlights its historic character, while more than 2,000 square feet provide room to gather, work, relax and grow. The main level includes a bedroom and full bathroom, offering convenient single-level living possibilities. Upstairs, you will find two additional bedrooms and a full bathroom featuring a classic clawfoot tub with coordinating shower hardware that complements the home's period style. Just beyond the second-floor living space is a newly finished flat roof area with exciting potential to become a private balcony, rooftop sitting area or peaceful outdoor retreat, subject to any required approvals and finishing work.

The enormous basement offers exceptional storage and seemingly endless possibilities. Imagine a workshop, home gym, recreation room, creative studio or additional finished living space. With so much room available, it is a blank canvas waiting for the next owner's ideas.

Outside, the backyard is ready for anyone who enjoys gardening and outdoor living. Raised garden boxes provide space for vegetables and herbs, while established flower gardens bring color and charm throughout the growing season. Recent improvements include a new roof, new gutters and a new garage door. Electrical service has also been run to the detached garage, adding convenience for lighting, tools, hobbies or a future workshop.

Located on Grand Rapids' Northwest Side, this home brings together historic charm, practical improvements and room to make it your own. It is an inviting property for buyers who appreciate mature neighborhoods, traditional architecture and the unmistakable warmth of a home that has been part of the community for more than a century.
