23607 Recreation Street

If you've been searching for a true custom-built, 2021 brick ranch in St. Clair Shores with a designer kitchen, a private primary suite, and an amazing finished basement, 23607 Recreation St is the home your search has been leading you to. Curb appeal starts the story: a full brick exterior, a concrete driveway with a circular turnaround, and mature, professionally maintained landscaping frame the entrance before you even reach the front door. Step inside to a foyer with a statement chandelier and rich wood flooring. From there, the great room takes over, where a coffered ceiling and a cozy fireplace set the tone before flowing straight into the dining area and a true custom kitchen. This isn't a kitchen that's just "nice" — it's the oversized island, sleek modern cabinetry by Lafata, and brushed brass fixture kind of kitchen that stops buyers mid-scroll and turns a showing into an offer. The primary suite is set apart from the secondary bedrooms for privacy, featuring elevated ceilings and oversized doors that give the space an unmistakably custom feel, along with its own ensuite bath and walk in California Closet. Two additional bedrooms round out the home's three bedrooms, including one with French glass doors that flexes easily as a den or home office, plus a full hall bath, a convenient half bath for guests, and a main-floor laundry room — all built for one-level living, which is exactly what so many buyers are typing into their searches right now. Then there's the basement — and this is not your average basement. It's a full, finished footprint that essentially almost doubles the home's living space, big enough to function as a legitimate second level. LVT flooring, painted exposed ceiling beams for a modern industrial feel, and multiple flex spaces make this the kind of amazing finished basement buyers don't expect to find: room for a rec area or pool table, a private home office, a second office nook, a home gym setup, a dedicated utility room, a full bathroom, and storage for days. Whether you're searching for "work from home" flexibility or just more finished square footage than the house next door, this basement delivers it. Outside, the attached garage offers real room for vehicles and gear, and the backyard is already built for entertaining, with a exposed-aggregate patio, a built-in fire pit, a dedicated dining area, and mature arborvitae hedging for privacy — all set on a quarter-acre lot with 90 feet of frontage. Custom-built in 2021, still move-in ready, this is the kind of home that gets searched for constantly and shows up rarely. Schedule your showing today — homes like this don't last long.
