Spanning 5162 finished sf, this smartly redesigned home boasts 4 bedrooms plus a bonus room, 4 full baths and 2 half baths, providing ample space for either relaxation or entertaining. Inside, the home exudes warmth and character with its original hardwood flooring, arches, and gorgeous plasterwork. Upon entering, you are greeted by an impressive foyer with original Pewabic tile and a grand, curving staircase in wrought iron and oak. The formal dining room immediately to the right of the foyer looks out onto Plymouth and also opens to the beautifully redesigned kitchen, equal parts perfect for an after school snack or a sizable soiree. Extensive structural work was completed (including adding a 22 foot steel beam) to expand the kitchen and integrate the original footprint of the house with a previous addition. The expansive kitchen is a real gem of a space with all new walnut cabinetry and a fluted walnut island, built-in appliances, Patagonia stone countertops and backsplash, and silver travertine floors. The new kitchen was also opened to the formal dining room, now offering pleasing sight lines framed by a grand archway. The original butler's pantry is accessed via a swinging door off the formal dining room, great for hidden party prep or storage. The main level guest suite or office entrance is between the kitchen and dining rooms. It's finished in a terracotta limewash and has a charming built-in bed flanked by built-in shelving. The main level has inviting, intimate nooks and living spaces beyond the traditional spaces- the living room steps down to a more intimate sitting room, from which you can either step up into a reading / tv room toward the kitchen, or onto the screened in bluestone porch. There is a new main level laundry in the hallway complete with a folding station and concealed, stacked washer/dryer. Don't miss the perfect jewel of a powder room with solid Calacatta viola marble sink, zellige tile, and a floating brass mirror. Upstairs, retreat to the large primary suite complete with limewashed walls, custom crown molding, a walk-in closet by California Closets, a luxurious en-suite bathroom with soaking tub and wet room, Emperador marble countertops and casings, and more California Closets cabinetry. It feels like stepping into a luxury hotel suite- all at home. The opposite wing of the upper level has two additional bedrooms that each adjoin a 'Jack and Jill' style light-bathed playroom. This wing has two full baths- the yellow bath has been updated with a custom marble-topped vanity, marble-cased mirror and new plumbing set off by the original butter yellow tiles. The third full bath on the upper level has emerald green Moroccan zellige tile, Tiffany green marble, brass Kohler fittings, verdant wallpaper, and a custom rift oak vanity. But wait- there's more living space in the basement- a large, cozy living room with built-ins and beverage refrigerators- perfect for movie night! There's also an adjacent half bath and tons of storage space. All of the unfinished basement areas have been freshly painted in neutral tones. The lower level also houses a second laundry room. New custom millwork throughout: in the kitchen, breakfast nook banquette and shelves, tv room shelves, mudroom & shelves, all vanities, the built in bed and shelves in the guest room, and the built in bed in the playroom. New custom window treatments throughout, including draperies and roman shades. This home sits on an unusually large lot for East, featuring a deep, private backyard. The mature landscaping beckons you to unwind- soak in the sun on the patio or enjoy a good book on the screened in porch. Make sure to walk all the way back into the extra deep lot to get the full scale of it- there's plenty of room for a play set, pickup games, or parties! There's also a brick patio and a firepit, and an oversized detached 2-car garage with storage at the rear (perfect for bikes, lawn equipment or a workshop). There's room for a pool or sport court, and the existing R1 zoning and lot size allows for an additional outbuilding up to 773 sf (pool house / ADU / casita!) The location is located just .3 miles to Blodgett / Corewell Hospital, .4 miles from Wealthy Elementary, .5 miles to Eastown, .7 miles to Gaslight Village, 1 mile to John Collins Park / Reeds Lake, convenient to Wealthy and Cherry Street shopping and dining, and just 2.5 miles to downtown Grand Rapids. Skip over the planning phase, design and engineering, and the renovation time and cost- which were significant- and move right into this beautifully renovated home on the boulevard section of Plymouth in the heart of East Grand Rapids.
