In the heart of Houghton, this 4 bedroom 2 bath home is within walking distance to Michigan Tech and downtown. History buffs take note: This was once the home of A.E. Seaman who was a prominent Geology professor and curator of the mineral museum at MTU. You’ll appreciate the enclosed front porch, a wonderful place for a rocking chair and a cup of coffee. From there, proceed into the foyer with a large coat closet, and enter the living room. A brick, wood-burning fireplace is the focus of the living room. Built-in book shelves flank the fireplace. A large picture window offers nice views of the wooded lot across and the street with the ski hill in the distance. Next you’ll enter the dining room which is conveniently located a short distance away from the kitchen. Again, you’ll notice the lovely hard wood floors. The dining room also features a window seat – a great place to cuddle up with a good book or give your plants a place to soak up the sun. Between the dining room and kitchen is a built-in desk and cupboards. The kitchen is basic but has everything you need, including a dishwasher. The main floor also has two large bedrooms and a full bath with a double vanity. Upstairs you’ll find two more large bedrooms, a ¾ bath, and an expansive hallway that could be an office, reading nook, family room, or what have you. Beautiful hard wood floors upstairs as well. You’ll find bright sunny spaces as there are 4 skylights. Unique features of the upstairs front bedroom are the walk-in closet and excellent view of the Mont Ripley ski hill. A great place to watch the fireworks during Winter Carnival. Updates include a new water heater in 2013, roof shingles on house new in 2009, garage roof new approximately 2 years ago, asbestos has been removed from the basement, washer and dryer approximately 3 years old. Sitting on 2 lots, you’ll love relaxing on the deck in the private back yard. Houghton has recently been popping up on 'Best Places to Live' lists.
