About this home

Nestled among mature trees and surrounded by abundant wildlife, this exceptional 2.29-acre property offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and opportunity. The peaceful setting feels like a secluded retreat, yet it is less than 10 minutes from downtown Rochester and Lake Orion, whose parks, dining, and everyday conveniences are at your fingertips. The property features a 2,032-square-foot ranch style home with 3 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and a walkout basement, providing endless possibilities to renovate, expand, or reimagine to fit your vision. For those looking to build, the expansive acreage presents an outstanding opportunity to create a custom estate in one of Oakland Townships' most desirable locations. Adding to its appeal, the property may be eligible for a split into two approximately 1-acre lots, subject to Oakland Township approval. If you are seeking a private sanctuary for a dream home building site this is an opportunity to purchase land that is increasingly difficult to find in Oakland Township. This property is also being listed as a To Be Built home under MLS #20261071171

Property taxes for a new owner

The current owner pays about $4,435 a year. A buyer who lives here would pay about $4,416 to $5,609 a year once the taxable value resets after the sale, at the 2025 homestead rate of 24.68 mills for Oakland Twp and Rochester schools, plus the 1% administration fee. Michigan resets a home's taxable value the year after it sells, so the seller's bill isn't a good number to budget with. See the math.
