6143 Sunshine Avenue, Schoolcraft, MI 49087

New Listing

$569,827

Designed to live away from the street, the home's primary spaces turn toward gardens, woods and open fields beyond.

Wider doorways were incorporated into the home’s original design with accessibility and changing needs in mind.

Custom designed for everyday living, the home balances open gathering spaces with rooms that still feel comfortably defined

A new refrigerator and range within the past two years complement the kitchen's custom cabinetry and generous workspace

Custom all-hardwood hickory cabinetry in the kitchen and main-floor baths was crafted specifically for this home by local cabinetmaker George Washburn

Just beyond the dining room, the covered porch extends everyday living outdoors—with the gardens, lawn and open landscape always within view

The primary suite extends outdoors to a private stamped-concrete patio with a hot-tub hookup and privacy screening to the west

The primary suite includes a professionally designed closet system

The 4-car garage offers more than parking, with cabinetry, a utility sink and generous storage around the perimeter

The lower-level family room was designed with future flexibility in mind, including plumbing planned for a kitchenette.

Generous built-in storage extends along the foundation wall

Major mechanical updates in 2025 include a new furnace, central air, water heater and well bladder tank

The lower-level woodworking shop includes a sink and hookup for a vacuum system

Direct Bilco access makes this a workshop that truly works—bringing tools, materials and projects in and out without going through the home

Meticulously maintained lawn and several established perennial gardens complement the home’s mature setting

The roof was replaced in 2010 with 50-year shingles, complemented by heavy-duty siding

A dedicated shallow well serves the irrigation system, keeping gardens and lawn watered without leaving telltale rust stains on the landscape or hardscape.

A professionally installed side garden and large slate pathway create an inviting connection between the covered deck and the garage’s rear entrance.

At the edge of the lawn, a woodland path slips beneath the trees—a quiet counterpoint to the wide-open views beyond

Nestled at the edge of the woods, with a backyard opening to a wide, open horizon of fields and sky.

Overview

Description

OPEN HOUSE SUNDAY, AUGUST 16, 1:00-3:00 PM! Some moves are about having more. Others are about finding what fits the life you're living now—and the one still ahead. This custom ranch was thoughtfully designed with flexibility built in from the start. Set near the back of Woodbrook Estates, mature trees, established gardens and views across the fields provide visual breathing room—a setting that feels a little less like a subdivision and a lot more like an escape. Inside, an open yet intentionally defined floor plan keeps the main living spaces connected without making them all feel like one room. At its heart: rich hickory cabinetry custom-built by a local craftsman. The primary suite opens directly to its own stamped-concrete patio with hot-tub hookup, extending everyday living into the gardens beyond. A next chapter shouldn't mean giving up the things you love to do. Four garage bays provide room for vehicles, gear and projects. Downstairs, that designed flexibility continues. Bi ... (Read more)

Supplements: exterior access leads directly into a dedicated woodshop/workshop, ready for the next project, while extensive built-in storage makes room for everything that comes with you. A generous finished living space includes a full bath, two egress windows and plumbing already in place for a future kitchenette or wet bar—space designed to adapt rather th ... (Read more)
