Spacious Furnished Private Suite in Quiet, Wooded Setting 20 min from U-M

Description

Furnished private lower-level suite available in a beautiful Tudor-style home in a peaceful, wooded, retreat-like setting, approximately 20 minutes from downtown Ann Arbor and the University of Michigan campus. The suite occupies approximately 1,000 square feet of a 3,000-square-foot home and offers a generous amount of private, unshared living and working space. It is especially well suited to a graduate student, postdoctoral scholar, visiting faculty member, or other university-affiliated professional looking for a quiet and comfortable place to live, read, write, or work from home. The private lower level includes: Separate entrance Large furnished living room (approximately 16' x 23') with gas fireplace Furnished bedroom (approximately 14' x 11') with walk-in closet Private full bathroom (approximately 9' x 8') with additional closet/storage Spacious kitchenette/eating area (approximately 26' x 11') with full-size refrigerator, sink, cabinetry, extensive counter space, and appliances Dedicated study/office area with a large desk Additional indoor storage Outdoor shed storage suitable for a bicycle and/or kayak Access to in-home laundry The home's other two residents occupy the two upper levels, allowing the lower level to function as a distinct and private living area while still being part of a shared home. One of the property's greatest advantages is its location. The house is situated in a quiet natural setting just ¼ mile from more than 25 miles of paved nature trails, as well as a private park providing access to the Huron River. Private lake access is also available. The surrounding trails are excellent for walking, running, bicycling, and enjoying the outdoors. At the same time, everyday conveniences are remarkably close. Within approximately ⅓ mile are a grocery store, pharmacy, fitness facility, restaurants, coffee shop, hair salon, gas station, auto repair shop, and dry cleaner. Medical and dental offices, a library, and two full-service post offices are within approximately one mile. The home is also about 4 miles from a Park & Ride with regional transportation connections (Michigan Flyer and People's Express) to Ann Arbor, Detroit Metro Airport, and Lansing, and the Park & Ride can be reached by paved trails without traveling along the main road. For those affiliated with the University of Michigan's environmental or field programs, the location provides a convenient midpoint between the Ann Arbor campus and the Edwin S. George Reserve/Stinchfield Woods area, approximately 11 miles away. Green Oak Village Place and Costco are about 10 minutes away. Monthly rent includes: Electricity and gas, water, high-speed wireless internet, garbage and recycling, and use of the home's washer and dryer. This is an especially appealing setting for someone who values both privacy, space, and connection to nature without sacrificing convenient access to Ann Arbor and the University of Michigan. It offers the kind of quiet environment that is ideal for dissertation writing, research, a sabbatical, or working on a book or other long-term project.
