7.5 private wooded acres with a spacious ranch home just minutes from Downtown Ortonville and only 0.6 miles to pavement. Originally constructed by a builder for his own residence, this home reflects thoughtful design and solid craftsmanship. Sited among mature trees, the property offers a peaceful natural setting. Inside, the home presents a bright and functional layout enhanced by large picture windows that bring in natural light and frame scenic woodland views. The main living area features exposed ceiling beams and a classic brick fireplace, creating an inviting space with subtle mid-century character. The kitchen offers solid wood cabinetry, generous work surfaces, and abundant storage, flowing easily into two dining spaces--one casual for everyday meals and another well suited for larger gatherings. A standout feature is the four-season sunroom with skylights and expansive windows, providing year-round views of the surrounding landscape and frequent wildlife sightings. An elevated, composite deck overlooks the rolling, tree-lined acreage and offers an ideal place to relax or entertain. The main level includes a spacious primary bedroom with an ensuite bath, one additional bedroom, and the convenience of a large, first-floor laundry. The finished walkout lower level expands the living space with a second fireplace, recreation area potential, two additional bedrooms with egress, and a full bath--creating excellent flexibility. Storage and workshop areas add practical functionality. The expansive parcel provides exceptional privacy, mature hardwoods, and plenty of room for exploring, gardening, or outdoor recreation. Key updates include (all dates approximate) roof & siding 10 years ago, AC replaced 6 years ago, septic system replaced within the last 15 years, water heater under 5 years old, furnace serviced annually.
