This bi-level home has hosted a family daycare for decades, but the time has arrived for a new owner. Set back from the road on a spacious lot in a quiet neighborhood on Traverse City's east side, close to lakes, state land and parks, this home has lots to offer. Three bedrooms and two full baths with loads of storage space and downstairs bonus rooms, even a "man cave!" New vinyl flooring in the living room and bedrooms adds durability. Updates include a new Bosch dishwasher in 2019, new washer and dryer in 2020, new metal roof in 2020 and a new oven and refrigerator in 2022. Detached garage offers extra workspace area and an expanded 2.5 car garage width. Large fenced backyard on a half-acre lot.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
