Property Description

Nestled on nearly 1.3 private, tree-lined acres with huge front and back yards, this exceptional 3-bedroom, 2¾-bath ranch home offers a rare combination of space, privacy, and timeless character—just a short walk to downtown Farmington, Longacre Elementary, and Drake Park. Built in 1958 and lovingly maintained by its original and only occupant, the home reflects an era of true craftsmanship while offering incredible potential for modern living. Large picture windows throughout the home flood every bedroom and common space with natural light and frame peaceful views of the surrounding trees and greenery. In spring, summer, and fall, the mature landscaping creates a remarkable sense of privacy with virtually no view of neighboring homes. The open floor plan provides a natural flow ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. At the heart of the home is a remarkable mid-century kitchen, featuring original turquoise steel cabinetry and a built-in desk in near-perfect condition—a true conversation piece that feels like a curated exhibit at The Henry Ford Museum. Preserve this iconic design or reimagine the space to suit your taste. All three bedrooms feature hardwood floors and generous closets. Two large bathrooms are on the first floor and a 3/4 bath in the basement. The home’s thoughtful design includes high ceilings, enhancing the sense of openness and light throughout. The property also offers practical upgrades, including 100+ amp electrical service and a spacious two-car garage with 220 service. Downstairs, a massive nearly 1,700-square-foot basement dramatically expands the living space. With high ceilings, full egress windows, and extensive finishing, Beautiful stonework surrounds the wood-burning fireplaces in both the living room and basement, adding warmth and architectural character. With its extraordinary lot, classic mid-century features, and unbeatable location.
