Ultra cool, loft-style living with deeded lake access to Whitmore Lake just around the corner. Originally built as an artists' studio, this home has many unique and wonderful features throughout. The entry level has open concept living, expansive 12ft. ceilings, floor to ceiling windows that let the sunlight and natural views pour in, and polished concrete, radiant-heated floors that keep the home warm and cozy in the winter and cool in the summer. The 2nd level has 3 bedrooms, each with a skylight and vaulted ceilings. The master bed has an en suite, modern, tiled master bath, added in 2010. On the landing upstairs, you'll find a large built-in workspace, perfect for a home office, with views of the lake from your chair. The large, 2.5 car garage has plenty of room for a workshop and storage. Vegetable and herb gardens are well established, along with a host of other plantings on the private, nearly half acre lot. Just a 13 min drive to Ann Arbor and 16 mins to Brighton.
