A truly rare find, this beautifully restored 1916 brick schoolhouse blends historic charm with striking modern design. Nestled in Southwest Michigan's scenic wine country & surrounded by woods & farmland, this former K-8 school is now a dramatic yet comfortable retreat. Soaring 12-foot ceilings, wood floors, & oversized windows flood the open-concept living space & bedrooms with natural light from morning to night. Renovated top to bottom in 2020, the home features a fully equipped stainless steel kitchen with a 10-foot island & a cozy gas fireplace, perfect for entertaining or relaxing. Original details like a vintage chalkboard in the dining area add nostalgic charm, while the two spacious bedrooms each offer a full bath with glass-enclosed showers. One suite includes a beautifully refurbished cast iron soaking tub for ultimate relaxation. Outdoor living is enhanced with a spacious deck & also a firepit area. Located within 20 mins of area beaches & less than 90 minutes to Chicago.
