Property Description
The attention to detail, the updates, the organization and the commitment to making this one of the most beautiful homes in Frankenmuth simply cannot be taught. Fitting, too, because this home once was a place of teaching itself, the original Bunjes one-room schoolhouse, built in 1885. Today, it offers a lesson of its own on what an incredible transformation of a historic home can look like. The appeal starts right from the road, where the meticulous landscaping and beautifully maintained exterior lead you to a covered porch and a stunning first impression. Step inside and let your jaw hit the floor as newer flooring, an incredible paint scheme and thoughtful decor bring together modern style with timeless charm. Throughout the home, you’ll find laminate flooring, newer carpet, updated light fixtures and a layout that balances character with function. The main floor features a large living room, a gas fireplace and a first-floor primary suite complete with a private bathroom offering dual sinks, a tub and an 8x6 walk-in closet. The kitchen is a dream, showcasing quartz countertops, a hexagon tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and a farmhouse sink set into a large butcher-block-topped island. The laundry area is also conveniently located on the first floor, along with plenty of closet storage. Upstairs, there are three additional bedrooms, each with its own walk-in closet, along with a full bathroom and a nook that works perfectly as an office space for those working from home. The finished basement adds another office area, a spacious living space ideal for hosting and a half bath. Outside, the fun keeps going. Enjoy sunny summer evenings from the composite deck on the northwest side of the home, perfect for cookouts and relaxing by the above-ground pool. The oversized garage is large enough for two vehicles and deep enough to handle extra storage with ease. If you’ve learned anything from this house, you’re ready for the test and this one earns an A+.
