A rare downtown offering, this impeccably updated 1950s ranch blends mid-century character with modern convenience in an unbeatable Traverse City location. Walk to the Grand Traverse Commons and bike to downtown, beaches, and trails, then come home to a thoughtfully refreshed interior featuring an open-concept main floor where the living room, dining area and kitchen flow seamlessly together, filled with abundant natural light. The updated kitchen and baths balance modern finishes with vintage personality, featuring quartz countertops, a Kohler farmhouse sink, GE Slate appliances, a beverage counter with pot filler, and refreshed bathrooms highlighted by mint-condition green tile. Generously sized main-floor bedrooms offer ample closet space and sunny corner windows, while the finished lower level adds a second living area with new carpet, an additional gas fireplace, built-in shelving, a legal third bedroom, second full bath, flex or workout space and a well-organized laundry room. Outside, enjoy a private fenced backyard with a paver patio, classic raised brick planter beds and alley access to a garage with extra storage and additional parking. Downtown living with personality, functionality and timeless charm! This is a truly special Traverse City home.
