Listing Description

EAST LANSING CHARM - PRIME LOCATION - LARGE BACKYARD - SOLID WOOD FLOORS Location, character, and space come together at 517 Bailey! This solidly built two-story home offers the charm of a classic East Lansing home, solid wood floors throughout, and a surprisingly large backyard-all in a quiet, non-rental district just minutes from MSU and downtown East Lansing.

The home also features a newly replaced first floor gas fireplace. The location is hard to beat: Just 1 block from Burcham Drive and East Lansing High School, within 1 mile of elementary and middle schools, and only 5 blocks from MSU and vibrant downtown East Lansing.

Inside, you'll find a clean, move-in-ready home with timeless character, solid wood flooring throughout, and plenty of opportunity to add your own personal touches. Outside, the large private backyard is a rare find for the neighborhood, offering space to relax outside, entertain, garden, or enjoy the outdoors.

The home also offers a screened porch in the back. Recent updates include a roof approximately 7 years old, newer kitchen cabinets and flooring, brand new gas fireplace, and a newer furnace and A/C. Come see 517 Bailey-you may find exactly what you've been looking for to call home! As you see I purchased some pictures that have been enhanced by AI. Interesting to see what the potential could be.
