Tucked into 8.46 wooded acres in Dexter's Countryside Estates, this property is a rare thing: true seclusion minutes from everything. A private pond and mature hardwoods wrap the home in quiet, screening it from the subdivision around it, while a walking path leads out to the surrounding wetland and woods. Deer move through at dusk. The only sounds are birdsong and wind in the canopy. And yet you're under 10 minutes to downtown Dexter, about 15 minutes to the University of Michigan campus and Michigan Stadium, and close to Hudson Mills Metropark and the Border-to-Border Trail along the Huron River for kayaking, golf, and biking. Inside, vaulted, beamed ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling brick fireplace anchor the main living space, which opens onto a wraparound deck suspended in the treetops — morning coffee here feels like being in a treehouse. The main level offers two bedrooms, including a primary suite, and two full baths, all with an easy, single-level flow. Below, a walkout lower level adds a third bedroom, half bath, and a second brick fireplace warming a second family room, plus a large unfinished space ready to become a studio, gym, or media room — your canvas to shape. A detached barn with power and concrete floor and a separate storage shed round out the grounds, ready for hobbies, or simply more storage than you'll know what to do with. This is a property for someone who wants the quiet of the woods and the pond outside their door without giving up proximity to Ann Arbor's restaurants, culture, and Big Ten energy. Well water, septic, natural gas forced-air heat, central air. Dexter Schools. Sold as-is.
