Welcome to 1044 Sunset Lane. Rare opportunity to own a beautifully renovated 1928 home in East Lansing's beloved Glencairn neighborhood. Blending historic character with modern updates, this move in ready home offers the charm buyers love and the functionality they need. Enjoy walkable access to downtown East Lansing, Michigan State University, parks, schools, restaurants, and local shops. Original architectural details pair seamlessly with thoughtfully updated living spaces, creating a home that feels both timeless and comfortable. Nestled on a picturesque tree lined street in one of East Lansing's most sought after neighborhoods, this is a rare chance to enjoy classic East Lansing living at its best. Staying true to its architectural appeal while enhancing it, decorative beams, crown molding, and accented tiled walls will appeal to today's buyer. A new cherry front door with tempered glass and wrought iron, along with an open foyer, leads to new hardwood floors throughout the first floor. A new gas fireplace in the living room, along with new fixtures and lighting, warms up this space. An open-style kitchen has been reimagined with new granite counters, cabinets and tile, featuring two islands--one with seating and both with storage. Appliances are new as of 2019. Laundry was moved upstairs for modern convenience. A new powder room was redesigned with designer wallpaper, marble floor, and fixtures. Plus, there's an Indoor and Outdoor Living space. Step out to the three-season room with heating to utilize the space well into the fall, wainscoting, and electrical. This space is perfect for working out, relaxing, entertaining or as a hangout for family & friends. Just off the back is a new deck and a flagstone patio with a custom gas fire pit. The lovely, landscaped, private yard offers an elevated outdoor living experience. The new landscaping has flourished into a charming environment, and fencing with black metal detailing adds not only character but also privacy. Parking? No problem. This driveway can fit up to 7 cars! Plus, there's a two-car garage with an extra electrical panel for landscape lighting or power tools, and added storage in the back. There are also wonderful second floor surprises! This floor offers four spacious bedrooms with engineered wood flooring throughout. Both bathrooms were new in 2019! The primary suite offers a private bath, a spacious closet, and a separate entrance to a private outdoor balcony set over the three-season room. The remaining bedrooms have generous closets. There is also a third-floor attic that offers the potential to finish into whatever you wish. Lastly, but not to be forgotten, is a freshly painted full basement which offers the opportunity to finish into an extra living area or workshop. It is also great for storage, has daylight windows, and includes a 100-amp and a 200-amp circuit panel (newer), and hot and cold plumbing. Other notable updates to the home include new windows and blinds in 2019, a new roof and siding in 2019, updated electrical in 2020, plumbing in 2019, heating ducts in 2020, and a new main water line to the street. It is a must see, and will be a wonderful new home for its new owner! Situated on a lovely corner lot on Sunset and Oxford, this delightful charmer awaits your visit.
