Property Description

Charming 1941 Cape Cod in Sweetheart Sycamore Park Neighborhood! This classic 1941 Cape Cod offers warmth, character, and thoughtful updates in one of Lansing's most charming, park-filled neighborhoods, just steps from Sycamore Park, Potter Park Zoo, and Shubel Park. With 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, and a wonderfully functional layout, this home blends vintage appeal with modern convenience. Inviting Main Level: Inside, natural light fills the welcoming living room through an expansive picture window. Beautiful hardwood floors, soft wall colors, and elegant crown molding create a warm, timeless atmosphere. A white-painted fireplace with detailed trim serves as a focal point for both everyday living and cozy evenings. The dine-in kitchen offers a charming combination of original character and newer features. A bright bay window anchors the breakfast area, while the cabinetry - white uppers and navy lowers - adds style and provides plenty of counter space, a pantry, and convenient built-ins (2023). Two comfortable main-floor bedrooms offer flexible spaces for sleeping, working, or nursery needs. They share a vintage-tiled bathroom that maintains the home's charming character from its era. Private Upper-Level Primary Suite: The entire upper floor serves as a spacious primary suite, featuring charming dormer windows and flexible areas for sleeping, lounging, or a home office. A full bathroom with modern fixtures adds comfort and convenience. Extra storage is an added bonus for organization! This level has great potential and works well as a retreat or a comfortable workspace for those who work from home. It feels like a private retreat - bright, peaceful, and full of possibilities. Lower-Level Storage, Laundry & Workshop: The clean, functional basement provides excellent storage, a dedicated laundry space, and a small workshop. Whether for hobbies, tools, or household overflow, this lower level easily supports everyday living. Outdoor Living & Updates: The private backyard features raised beds, mature trees, and space for gardening or play. A detached garage with a new roof in 2021 adds both storage and practicality. Additional improvements include new gutters (2022) and chimney updates (2023). Nearby Sycamore Park offers open green space, a playground, and the natural beauty of the Red Cedar River, just a short walk from your front door.
