Single Family Home for sale in Shelby Charter Township, MI
for $409,900 with 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, 1 half bath. This 3,600 square foot home was built in 1978 on a lot size of 0.28.
An exceptional value in desirable Franklin Meadows, this spacious French Colonial stands out with its distinctive double-pitched mansard roof, dormer windows, brick exterior, mature landscaping, side-entry two-car garage, and covered porch. Glass double doors open to a ceramic-tiled foyer, while fresh paint and new LVP flooring give the main level a clean, updated feel. The flexible layout includes formal living and dining rooms, main-level laundry, and a well-appointed kitchen with granite countertops, a peninsula with bar seating, stainless steel appliances, tile backsplash, and abundant cabinetry. The breakfast area opens to the great room, where exposed wood beams and a natural wood-burning fireplace create a warm focal point. French doors lead to a brick-paver patio and expansive backyard. Upstairs, the generously sized bedrooms include an oversized primary suite with a separate sitting area and built-in window seating, ideal for an office, exercise space, or quiet retreat, plus a walk-in closet and private full bath. An updated full bath features marble flooring and subway tiles. The finished basement adds valuable recreation, storage, and flex space with built-in storage and work areas. Recent improvements include a new A/C in 2024, new sump pump in 2026, and a whole-home generator. Franklin Meadows offers a private 10-acre park, two additional neighborhood parks, more than two miles of residents-only walking and biking trails, sidewalks, picnic and playground areas, basketball and tennis courts, plus community events including Easter egg hunts, Oktoberfest, Brunch with Santa, and more. Fences and pools are permitted subject to applicable approvals. Convenient to Stony Creek Metropark, River Bends Park and its connected trail system, Shelby Township recreation, Hall Road shopping and dining, and M-53. The seller is offering a $6,000 concession toward carpeting, allowing the buyer to choose their preferred style. Otherwise, this home is move-in ready.
