Set on a private end-unit corner lot backing to protected woods, this 4,400-square-foot Country French Estates home offers a level of privacy and setting that's genuinely hard to find. Over $145,000 in thoughtful upgrades across the past eight years means the big-ticket items are already done: a new roof, new HVAC system, new appliances, new reinforced driveway, refreshed landscaping, and new siding all combine to deliver true move-in-ready peace of mind. Outside, a firepit and new 500-square-foot Trex deck with a built-in hot tub creates an entertainer's retreat overlooking the wooded backdrop. Inside, the open-concept main level is anchored by hardwood floors, cathedral ceilings, and walls of windows that frame the wooded views and fill the home with natural light. A formal dining room opens directly to the deck, while a sitting room with a gas fireplace and a home office with French doors provide flexible spaces for both everyday living and quiet focus. The two-story family room, also warmed by a gas fireplace, serves as a dramatic centerpiece for gatherings large and small. At the heart of it all, the gourmet kitchen pairs cherry cabinetry with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, complemented by a center island with breakfast bar, a pantry, and a dedicated eating area. The primary suite delivers a true owner's retreat, featuring a cathedral ceiling, a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-inspired bath with dual-sink quartz vanity, soaking tub, and tiled shower. With 5 well-appointed bedrooms and 4.5 baths total, there's room for family, guests, and everything in between. The finished basement rounds out the home's living space with a full bar outfitted with a dishwasher, wine fridge, mini fridge, and three mounted TVs, alongside a full bath with tiled shower, a fifth bedroom, and a padded sports room ideal for a home gym or play space. The surrounding neighborhood offers its own quiet appeal, with a community park, walking trails, and two fishing ponds woven throughout for residents to enjoy. Positioned within the Ann Arbor school district while benefiting from the lower taxes of Scio Township, this home offers a rare combination of location, lifestyle, and long-term value that distinguishes it well beyond the floor plan alone.
