About this home
HIGHEST AND BEST OFFERS DUE TUESDAY, OCT. 28 AT 3:00PM..This iconic Italianate home in the desirable Cooper area is a truly rare find. Built in the 1860s, this historic residence offers over 3,000 finished sq. ft. Nestled on more than 25 picturesque acres—mostly wooded with some open pasture—the property provides a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature, yet is conveniently close to modern amenities. It's a wonderful opportunity for a buyer with vision to restore and update it to its original splendor. The home was most recently used as a four-unit apartment building, with the owner occupying the main-level unit. With thoughtful renovation, it could easily be converted back into a remarkable single-family residence—one to be cherished for generations to come. An old pole barn is already configured for horses and includes partial pasture fencing, perfect for equestrian use or hobby farming. A newer four-stall garage provides excellent space for vehicles, equipment, or workshop needs, while two additional older sheds offer even more storage. Newer large septic system. Just north of D Avenue, this property offers quick and easy access to US-131, making commutes to Kalamazoo, Plainwell, or Grand Rapids convenient while maintaining the tranquility of country living. Surrounded by mature trees, wildlife, and the charm of its rural setting, this historic estate is ideal for those seeking space, privacy, and an opportunity to bring a treasured piece of local history back to life. The home is being sold in its "as-is" condition (including well and septic), as the longtime owner who lived here for over 40 years is unable to make repairs and/or updates. For the right buyer, this is a rare chance to own a historic estate with tremendous potential, character, and setting - truly a one-of-a-kind property waiting to shine once again.
