Farmhouse in the city! 1317 Michaels Lane is tucked away on nearly 2 acres of peace and quiet, while still only minutes from downtown. This rare opportunity provides room to roam, garden, or even start a mini orchard. It's your chance to build on the existing fig and plum trees, blackberries, hydrangeas, a mulberry tree, and an 80-year-old pear tree that produces fruit every year. The historic farmhouse features four spacious bedrooms and two full bathrooms, with a thoughtful mix of charm and modern updates. Original wood floors run throughout much of the house, complemented by select historic windows with beautiful wavy glass that add character and warmth. Behind the scenes, major improvements have already been completed, including new wiring, plumbing, and an HVAC system--offering peace of mind for years to come. The property also includes abundant storage options, an unfinished basement, and a detached garage--rare features for a property like this. The detached garage features a semi-finished space above, ideal for a workshop, studio, or additional storage. A small shed with electricity is currently used as a chicken coop but could easily serve as storage or another creative space. The property is serviced by well water while also connected to city sewer, combining independence with convenience. If you've been searching for space, privacy, and timeless charm without leaving the city, this unique farmhouse on Michaels Lane truly delivers.
