Property Description
Rare custom ranch offering refined design, thoughtful functionality, and exceptional seclusion in the prestigious Polo Fields neighborhood. Designed and built by Tom Germain in 2000, this beautifully maintained home sits on a secluded 0.47-acre lot with extensive landscaping backing to a serene woodline--creating a peaceful setting while remaining convenient to everything that matters, with the added benefit of lower Scio Township taxes. A striking first impression begins with Art Deco-inspired custom leaded-glass double front doors, complemented by a matching feature in the primary bath--both crafted by a local Ann Arbor artist--providing strong visual impact. Inside, a desirable split-bedroom floor plan offers both comfort and personal retreat. Rich hardwood flooring flows through the kitchen, dining room, family room, hallway & powder room. The gourmet kitchen is thoughtfully appointed with custom cherry cabinetry, granite countertops & spacious island with additional prep sink
