''Riverfront Estate!''Incredible opportunity to own a unique historical home in the heart of downtown Williamston that was originally the Grand Estate of F.G. Sky Cheney, a road builder and owner of Cheney Concrete Block and Limestone. With more than 5,200 square feet, this lovingly cared for home is just two miles from I-96 and 10 miles to neighboring East Lansing but is itself an oasis on a large lot in the center of town.


With the current owners (only the second to own the home) ready to downsize after raising their children here, this is a special chance to take over the reins and make your own memories in this amazing home. As you do, you'll enjoy this 2.3 acre property with over 700 feet of river frontage and 450 feet along the Brookshire Golf Course, 5 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, large kitchen, formal dining room, 3 living areas, 4 brick fireplaces with an indoor grill, sunken copper wet bar, heated attached garage with floor drain and new opener and extra out building. Also experience a billiards room with fireplace in the basement and a library with one of the biggest windows you've ever seen overlooking the private back yard, with the river and Brookshire golf course beyond. The interior features hardwood entryway, hardwood living room and sunroom, wrought iron railings, curved black slate stairway, owners suite with attached full bath and additional large upstairs suite with separate staircase perfect for extended guests just to name a few. The home is on a private well, so no city water bills, but the conveniences of city sewer along with a 4-inch irrigation well. But those details can't begin to explain this home, which holds a special place in the hearts of all who have lived and loved here, including those who experienced the many celebrations hosting nearly 80 people for Thanksgiving or Christmas. This is where people came to feel belonging. It's where they came to feel loved. And for nearly 30 years, that's exactly what happened, day in and day out. This home is built to celebrate in. To run and laugh and share in. There's love in these walls and while it's bittersweet for the owners to say goodbye, they rest easy knowing they're passing on a tradition of love and community to whoever comes next.
