About this home

Sidewalks lead toward Depot Town from this 1949 Ypsilanti Township Colonial, where a covered front porch welcomes you in and a shaded, fenced backyard offers room to spend summer afternoons outside. Wood floors run through the living room and separate dining room, giving each space its own character. In the kitchen, an apron-front sink and subway tile backsplash complement the stainless steel appliances. A main-floor bedroom and full bath add flexibility, and a rear mudroom connects the patio to a dedicated laundry room with a washer and gas dryer. All appliances are included. Upstairs, a separate bonus room lends itself to a home office or reading room, with a half bath on the same level. The unfinished partial basement provides storage and access to the crawl space. Step outside to the partially covered concrete patio, where there’s room to grill and linger over dinner in the shade. A detached garage sits on the 0.26-acre corner lot. With a bus stop out front and Depot Town’s shops and restaurants nearby, an afternoon out can end right where it began, on the covered front porch.
