Property details

About 705 E Bay St

Every square foot of this bright and cozy ranch home has received a total makeover. Original hardwood maple floors are restored, and new maple trim added. The new kitchen is cute and practical, with a breakfast nook and step-up pantry that are unique. The home’s size-conscious bedrooms and bathroom-with-a-tub/shower, serve to yield more floor space in its cheerful main living areas. Lake Huron’s breezes continually refresh the entire home and the adorable yard, which is ready for hosting barbeques or just sipping morning coffee on the patio. A golden apple tree provides food for people or deer, unless you prefer to eat from the pear tree, or to harvest the concord grapes. The spacious driveway has room for parking a camper, RV, boat, or extra vehicles. The 2-car/2-story detached garage has an upgraded electrical system, and it is adequate for installing appliances. Original basement foundation stones received new mortar and a water-proof coating. Dry floors are sealed, and they hold a high-efficiency furnace, new hot water heater, and new high-end washer/dryer. City festivals are close by: Blues by the Bay, street dances, fireworks, and parades. Perchville’s annual Polar Bear Plunge is just across the street. The state boat dock and boat launch are in easy walking distance. Take a lovely stroll to enjoy ice cream parlors, toy stores, restaurants, a movie theater, and shops. The many thoughtful renovations and wonderful location of this home make it a special place where lifelong memories are made. Don’t let it get away!
