Mid-century charm meets cottage-core character on 1.4 wooded acres. Tucked into a beautiful, private setting with exceptional curb appeal, this impeccably maintained 1,500 sq ft ranch offers a rare combination of character, versatility, and room to grow. Whether you're looking to downsize into an accessible, single-level floor plan, find your first home with room to spread out, or add a unique property to your investment portfolio, the possibilities here are hard to overlook. Conveniently located just 10 miles from Frankenmuth and Birch Run and minutes from downtown Bridgeport, you'll enjoy a peaceful country atmosphere without sacrificing convenience. Inside, the spotless interior offers a warm, inviting feel with an open living room and kitchen layout, complete with appliances that stay. Two comfortable bedrooms feature durable LVP flooring, while the full bathroom offers timeless tile finishes. A versatile bonus room off the carport provides the perfect opportunity for a mudroom, home office, or playroom. Additional storage off the utility room adds everyday practicality, while the existing storage/workshop space presents an exciting opportunity to create a third bedroom with plumbing ran. The wooded lot is truly what sets this property apart. The 40' x 20' barn already has electricity and, while needing some attention, offers tremendous potential for a workshop, hobby space, or additional storage. Beyond its undeniable charm, this home has been exceptionally cared for, with several important improvements already completed. Updates include siding in 2025, vinyl windows, an updated electrical panel, a newer water heater, a Lennox furnace installed by B & S in 2023, and an elastomeric roof coating applied in October 2026. Furnishings are negotiable, creating an added opportunity for buyers looking for a convenient, potentially move-in-ready setup.
