Beautifully maintained Craftsman-style home in the heart of Marquette, ideally perched atop a hill on W. Ridge Street. Take in breathtaking views of Marquette Mountain, downtown, and Lake Superior—all within walking distance. This timeless home blends classic character with thoughtful updates, including a new roof (2023), updated 200-amp electrical service, and newer windows. The beautifully refreshed kitchen features ceramic flooring, while the updated bath offers the added comfort of in-floor heating. Commercial-grade room-darkening shades and custom built-ins further enhance the home’s functionality and style. Original hardwood floors shine throughout, perfectly complementing the rich woodwork, elegant staircase, and crown molding that highlight the home’s historic charm. A spacious family room addition with south-facing windows captures stunning views and creates a warm, inviting atmosphere with a cozy wood-burning stove. All bedrooms include generous walk-in closets. The attached garage is a standout feature, complete with its own wood burner, enhanced lighting, and a kitchenette. Currently enjoyed as additional living and seating space, it can easily be used as a traditional garage with very little effort. The lower-level bedroom offers direct access to the lower deck, creating a private retreat with easy outdoor access. The basement is well-appointed with a sauna, gun or hobby room, ample storage space, bathroom, laundry area, and a versatile fourth bedroom that can also serve as an office or playroom to fit your needs. Step outside to a multi-level Trex deck, structurally designed to support a hot tub, and discover a private, fenced backyard oasis. Lush perennials, winding walkways, a garden shed, fire pit, and tranquil pond are all supported by a professionally installed irrigation system. Low utility costs add to the overall appeal. Originally built for a physician, this exceptional property offers both character and comfort. Bird enthusiasts will especially appreciate the abundance of seasonal birds that visit daily, adding to the peaceful charm of this remarkable home. Taxes are not $0.
