About this home
HUGE PRICE DROP! Highly Motivated Seller! Hard to find, 3.29 park-like acres in the heart of Portage, gorgeous ranch with walkout basement! This property blends modern updates with timeless character. The main level features a striking living room that feels like a work of art—vaulted ceilings with wood plank walls and ceiling, expansive windows framing the natural surroundings, and a wood-burning fireplace as the centerpiece. The open kitchen and dining area showcase high-quality cabinetry, gorgeous quartz countertops, a large center island, commercial-grade appliances including refrigerator and gas range. A sliding door leads to the back deck, ideal for entertaining or enjoying peaceful views. Three bedrooms and a full bath are located on the main level, with two bedrooms and one bath along a private hallway—an effortless conversion to a primary ensuite with the addition of a door. Both bathrooms have been extensively renovated with custom tile work and luxurious fixtures. Every detail has been thoughtfully updated to make the home feel like new. The walkout lower level offers a large family room with another wood-burning fireplace, two (possibly three) additional bedrooms, a full bath, large storm shelter and walkout patio. Outside, you'll find a 32x40 oversized three-car garage with an attached workshop. The property also includes a separate parcel on South Shore, presenting future split/development potential with city approval to break off the western wooded area. With 1,620 sq ft on the main level and 1,388 finished sq ft in the lower level, this home provides abundant living space in a serene natural setting. All this, just minutes from West Lake Nature Preserve, South Westnedge Park, Lakeview Park, and the Portage lakes - perfect for lake lovers and outdoor enthusiasts. A private oasis in the heart of Portage, near restaurants, shops, the airport and 45 minutes to the white sand beaches of Lake Michigan!
