Property Watch: Cedar Chalet

Close to town yet closer to nature – it’s what many want This is a lovely four-bedroom home that offers woodland views, with room to roam inside and out and a relatively short drive to Traverse City.

This chalet-style home at 2495 E Kasson Road in Cedar ($535,000; MLS #1907222) offers all that and more. The stone fireplace with its hand-carved mantel is the focal point of the main level. It features satin-finished oak floors, bamboo countertops in the kitchen, and stainless steel appliances. The master suite is also on the main floor, complete with a free-standing tub and separate shower. Bring the outside in and vice versa, as the expansive deck provides plenty of room for lounging, grilling or gathering with friends. Upstairs you’ll find three generous and distinctly different bedrooms, one of which boasts its own Juliet balcony to drink in those views. The bedroom above the garage would also make for a great office, studio, or home gym.

A large, unfinished walkout lower level – with sliders to bring the daylight in – offers endless possibilities. As listing Realtor Rob Serbin says, you’re in the right place “if you're looking for the perfect up north home, with privacy, nice upgrades, and a bit of unrestricted acreage.”
