Welcome to your new home with Reeds Lake views in the most sought-after location in East Grand Rapids. Just steps from EGR High School, EGR Middle School, Reeds Lake Trail, EGR Library and Gaslight Village, this beautifully updated home on Maxwell Avenue offers approximately 2,600 square feet of living space with 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms, all situated on a rare and spacious large corner lot. Major updates include a new roof, gutters with leaf guards, and a tankless water heater installed in 2025, along with a new furnace and central air conditioning added in 2022. All flooring was redone in 2024 including the original hardwood floors that have been beautifully refinished and new carpet upstairs and in the basement. The property features a rare large lot in East Grand Rapids, providing exceptional space to play, entertain, or expand. A brand-new cement driveway offers parking for up to four cars. Enjoy year-round views of Reeds Lake from the second floor and seasonal lake views from the main level, filling the home with natural light and a peaceful atmosphere throughout the year. Two gas fireplaces in the living room areas offer a cozy atmosphere on cold winter days. An attached two-stall garage provides ample convenience, along with a large upstairs storage area. An adjoining mudroom provides organized storage for shoes, coats, and backpacks, keeping everyday clutter out of the main living spaces. The property is fully equipped with underground sprinklers covering the entire lot and a lush, professionally maintained lawn. Additional unfinished upstairs storage space offers flexibility and could be converted into a home office or an additional bedroom. Maxwell Avenue is known for its strong sense of community, highlighted by a large last-day-of-school block party, monthly gatherings and holiday celebrations. Kids will not get bored living on this block.
