Ferndale Wow! House: This Bungalow Defies the Stereotype

FERNDALE, MI — Sure, you could buy an Oakland County mansion or even an urban loft, but square-footage and lofty views aren’t the only things that make homes on the market in the Ferndale market worthy of a second look.

This week’s Ferndale Wow! House, a tidy brick bungalow located at 900 W. Drayton St. in Ferndale and listed for $319,900 by Jim Shaffer of Keller Williams Royal Oak Market Center has curb appeal that doesn’t disappoint when you step inside.

What we love: Bungalows often contain galley kitchens that are short on counter space and move to room around, but that’s not the case here. The 20-by-14 light-filled kitchen makes us want to pack up our pots and pans and start cooking. The kitchen has hickory wood cabinets and drawers, quartz counters and a subway tile backsplash.

In warm-weather months, we’ll entertain you on a gorgeous deck that offers views of well established perennial gardens. During the growing season, your tastebuds will be rewarded with produce from a well-tended, raised-bed vegetable gardens.

There’s plenty of room in the 7,405-square-foot home for a family. Two bedrooms on the main level share an updated bath, and two more good-sized bedrooms are found upstairs, including the master suite that has a walk-in closet and newer full bath.

The partially finished basement offers the possibility of more living space, and has a half bath.
