Remarkable Forest Hills Schools, Grand Rapids Township waterfront retreat! Don't let the modest front exterior fool you-this expansive walkout ranch is a remarkable hidden gem tucked away on 1.5 secluded acres in the highly sought-after Forest Hills Eastern School District. Offering 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and over 3,200 square feet of finished living space, the home enjoys breathtaking views of private 10-acre Shadow Lake, with no public access.

The main-floor primary suite offers a peaceful retreat with a recently remodeled ensuite bath featuring a walk-in tile shower, double vanity, and radiant heated tile floors. Relax on the charming country-style front porch or step outside to the expansive maintenance-free composite deck spanning the entire back of the home, where you'll enjoy panoramic lake views and unforgettable sunsets. The finished walkout lower level features a spacious family room with a second fireplace and direct access to the backyard. From there, a lush lawn leads to the patio with fire pit and the water's edge, complete with a brand-new $27,000 dock. Two additional bedrooms-one non-conforming with a walk-through layout-and a full bath provide flexible space for guests, hobbies, or a home office. Recent improvements include new vinyl siding, exterior doors, three Andersen sliding patio doors, a concrete driveway, sidewalks, and a fire pit.
