This neighborhood, in Maplewood Forest, feels like a hidden pocket of the woods, but you’re still close to everything you need. Tucked into the quiet Timber Ridge area, this home offers a peaceful setting with a sense of space and privacy that’s getting harder to find. You’re just minutes from shopping, schools, restaurants, and parks, plus quick access into Traverse City without the constant hustle. Set on nearly half an acre, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home blends comfort and function. The main living space is bright with big windows and a simple, open layout. The kitchen features warm wood cabinets and stainless steel appliances, and the dining area opens to a big back deck that overlooks a wooded backyard—mostly private and ready for bonfires, hammocks, or letting the dog roam. Downstairs, there’s a bonus room for whatever you need—workout space, workshop, or movie nights. A 2-car garage and fresh landscaping in front round out the package. It’s the kind of home that’s easy to move into, and easy to love.
