Modern Luxury Investments. $100K Designer Kitchen | $100K Saltwater Pool Retreat | New Heated Oversized 3-Car Garage | $40K HDPE Entertainment Deck | Nearly Half-Acre | Heart of St. Michael They didn't renovate this home to sell it. They renovated it to stay. Originally built in 1910 with timeless Craftsman influences, this nearly half-acre property blends historic character with a level of investment and transformation rarely found in today's market. Purchased seven years ago as a forever home, every improvement was intentional and focused on longevity, functionality, and elevated everyday living. Then life changed, creating an opportunity that rarely comes along. At the heart of the home is a nearly $100,000 custom designer kitchen featuring coffered ceilings, premium soft-close cathedral dark oak cabinetry, reeded glass accents, stone countertops with matching full-height backsplash, an oversized center island, farmhouse sink, professional-grade gas range, stainless steel appliances, new knockdown ceilings, and recessed lighting. Flowing throughout the home is nearly $50,000 in hand-scraped engineered hardwood flooring, adding warmth and timeless character while seamlessly connecting the home's historic architecture with its modern transformation. The charming main farmhouse bath has also been thoughtfully reimagined, featuring a custom reclaimed antique washstand vanity, vessel sink, and beautifully foxed mirror glass, blending period character with timeless design. The backyard was completely re-imagined into a private retreat centered around a 5' deep, 30' x 15' gas-heated saltwater sports pool with waterslide, automatic power cover, custom concrete surround, and six-foot security fencing. An expansive $40,000 maintenance-free HDPE deck creates the perfect setting for entertaining and everyday enjoyment. Equally impressive is the new 32' x 24' insulated and heated (49,000 BTU) oversized three-car garage, complete with nine-foot doors and a 'Hot Dawg' heater, offering exceptional space for vehicles, boats, campers, and hobbies. A new custom concrete driveway further enhances the property's curb appeal and functionality. Additional improvements include a new roof with LeafGuard gutters on both the home and garage, new fascia and soffits with Juno puck lighting, refreshed landscaping, and a recently re-certified furnace and air conditioning system. The transformation has already begun. The signature lifestyle enhancements and historic character that make this property so special are already in place, while the current pricing reflects remaining improvements and the opportunity for the new owner to add their finishing touches. A rare chance to write the final chapter of this remarkable home and enjoy the privilege of owning one of St. Michael's most unique Historic Properties. They built their forever home. Life simply had other plans.
