This newer ranch-style home checks all the boxes for comfortable, functional living with modern touches throughout. Open concept layout with 9-foot ceilings, tons of natural light, and natural wood-look vinyl plank flooring that ties it all together. The kitchen features a gas range with two separate ovens, a large walk-in pantry, and flows right into the living area with a cozy gas fireplace. All bedrooms and the laundry room are conveniently located on the main floor, including the primary suite with a walk-in closet. There's great closet space throughout - two in the mudroom, two near the front foyer, plus extra storage where you need it. The walk-out basement is fully finished and feels like its own apartment: huge living room, full bedroom, full bath, kitchenette area for bar and fridge, oversized storage room with built in shelving, and a bonus office/playroom/flex room. Enjoy privacy in the backyard from the low-maintenance Trex deck, and store all your extras in the oversized 2-car garage with epoxy floor. Just minutes from downtown Howell and shopping. Quick access to the expressway. The neighborhood even hosts food truck events throughout the year. Extras: Ring doorbell, sidelights on the front door for extra light, and a great blend of practical layout and modern finishes. Electrical Prep for a hot tub (e)off walk-out patio. Gas line is available off deck for grilling purposes.
