DescriptionShow

There is something special about coming home to Winterwood. Tucked among mature trees near Crahen Valley Park, Frederik Meijer Gardens Sculpture Park, and Forest Hills Northern schools, this distinctive brick home offers a rare combination of privacy, nature, and convenience—just minutes from downtown Grand Rapids. Designed for gathering, working, relaxing, and welcoming family and friends, the home offers exceptional flexibility without losing its warmth. The kitchen and family room flow naturally to a four-season porch, expansive composite deck, and peaceful wooded setting. Two substantial private offices on separate levels make working from home easy, while upstairs, the master suite offers a private retreat nestled among the trees—a peaceful place to end the day. Inside, freshly refinished hardwood floors introduce gracious living spaces filled with natural light and views of the surrounding landscape. Formal living and dining rooms provide beautiful spaces for entertaining, while the kitchen—with quartz countertops, a center island, double ovens, and a walk-in pantry—opens to a comfortable family room and fireplace. A cherry- paneled office with its own fireplace and built-in cabinetry adds warmth and character to the main level. The home's connection to nature is perhaps best experienced from the four-season porch and expansive deck, where the wooded surroundings become part of everyday life. Upstairs, the master suite is joined by three additional bedrooms, including a private guest suite. The walk-out lower level adds another dimension, with a large recreation and entertaining area with a fireplace and built-ins, a second private office, dedicated fitness spaces, and a bedroom with a full bath—ideal for guests or extended family. With nearly 8,000 square feet of finished living space, the home's size is best appreciated in the way it lives. There is room to gather and room to find a quiet place of your own—to work, exercise, entertain, welcome guests, or simply relax. Recent improvements include professional repainting (2026), new carpet (2025/2026), a resealed asphalt driveway (2026), new septic tanks (2026), two furnaces and two water heaters (2022), and a composite deck (2018). A three-stall garage with epoxy flooring, whole-home generator, and invisible fence complete the property. Winterwood provides the setting. But the real beauty of this home is measured differently—in the people who gather here, the memories waiting to be made, the quiet of the surrounding trees, and that unmistakable feeling of coming home.
