Magnolia farmhouse charm meets Restoration Hardware-chic in this beautifully updated home, set on 1.5 acres with a 40x60 pole barn, surrounded by rolling orchards and countryside between East Grand Traverse Bay and Elk Lake.

Magnolia farmhouse charm meets Restoration Hardware-chic in this beautifully updated home, set on 1.5 acres with a 40x60 pole barn, surrounded by rolling orchards and countryside between East Grand Traverse Bay and Elk Lake. The current owners started with the sturdy canvas of this Dutch colonial home with it's pleasing floor plan and flowing architectural spaces, and crafted a gorgeous piece of art through their updates - most every room was painted in a neutral-modern color palate, durable hardwood-style luxury vinyl plank flooring was installed throughout, lighting fixtures and kitchen/bath fixtures were replaced, and much more. Highlights include a relaxing haven of a primary suite complete with a dedicated sitting room, private fireplace and private bath, an L-shaped living room with a coffered ceiling, a 2nd fireplace, and plenty of space for entertaining, an island kitchen with granite counters and a beamed vaulted ceiling, a formal dining room with beautiful wainscotting and crown molding, and an opulent den with original hardwood floors and a floor-to-ceiling built-in bookcase. Low maintenance Hardi-plank siding adorns the exterior, a high-efficiency 8-zone boiler was installed in 2017, and the current owner installed two electric mini-splits for cooling. The back porch has removable screening and can be accessed by the kitchen and dining room, providing a lovely extension of the living space in warmer months. The 40x60 pole barn is new in the last couple years, complete with two overhead doors, electric, internet, and French drains in the concrete floor. This truly is a one-of-a-kind home!
