Custom Contemporary Overlooking Huron River Asks $389,000

Wow House: Dexter

DEXTER, MI -- Set on a hilltop perched high above the Huron River, this custom-built contemporary offers so many ways to enjoy the view, you may never watch another minute of television again. The 1.33 acre property features views of trees, hilly terrain and the distant river, and an interior that feels cozy, yet utterly modern and sleek. The split level house has a uniquely open floor plan, with the kitchen and eating space adjoining a large living room. Both spaces have sliders outside to the many decks and patios that anchor the property. The space has been extensively renovated since the home was built in 1979. In 2010l the kitchen walls were removed to open the space, and the new kitchen features light maple custom cabinets, granite countertops, Bosch stainless steel appliances and the same hardwood floors you'll find throughout the entire upper level.

The bedrooms are large, bright spaces, and the house has new energy-efficient vinyl windows that let in a lot of light. There are balconies overlooking the property, which stretches seemingly for miles, and a collection of sunken and ground-level patios make the space immediately outside the home's walk-out lower level seem like an additional living and dining room. The lower level has a family room with a wood-brining fireplace set in a full wall of white-painted brick and sliding doors out to that unique sunken brick patio. There's also a bedroom and a full bath, so the lower level makes an excellent in-law or guest space, too.
