5225 W Delta River Drive - Over the River and thru the woods, to purchase your new house, you go...This custom home was built by Jeff Adcock, for the current owners, and the Victorian design was patterned after the stately east coast homes of Ship Captains, where their families would gather in the Widows Watch third floor lookout, to see if their husbands and fathers were returning home from the sea. This unique feature is accessible thru the attic, and is heated for year round use, star gazing, and wildlife watching. West Delta River drive is designated as a Natural Beauty Road, and it doesn't disappoint with curves, ups and downs, and is tree lined where the property owners take great pride in their location close to downtown Lansing, and served by the Grand Ledge school district. A treasure also exists just west of the home with the State Headquarters of the Michigan Audubon Society and Nature Sanctuary, the Capital City Bird Sanctuary, and Hawk Meadows Park.


A treasure also exists just west of the home with the State Headquarters of the Michigan Audubon Society and Nature Sanctuary, the Capital City Bird Sanctuary, and Hawk Meadows Park with its many nature trails and open spaces. If you like nature at its best, this home is a hidden treasure of the area. The home features a wonderful floor plan, with a wraparound large front porch, heated sun room for year round enjoyment, a large first floor office with built in shelving, and a huge gourmet kitchen with pantry, built in informal eating area and ample cherry cabinets. A formal dining room with one of the 4 bay windows is perfect for those holiday gatherings as well as the front parlor room, all of which allow nature viewing from the large size windows. The lot is almost 5 acres in size, oh, and did we mention, that the property has frontage on the Grand River which has excellent fishing and kayaking/canoeing! Take the short hike to the river thru the back gate, cross the creek bridge, and marvel at the beautiful views along the 176 feet of river frontage. The fruit trees and hardwoods on the property often attract deer and other critters looking for that quick snack and the bird watching is just amazing. The first floor laundry/mud room has a custom decorative sink, along with ample storage space, a chute from above and located just off the entrance to the attached 2+ car garage. The second floor has 4 bedrooms one of which has been used as a second home office, and the primary (master) bedroom suite is large with huge walk-in closets and open bath that has a oversized jetted tub and separate shower. The home has a total of 3 full baths, a security system, hooked up to municipal water but also a working well for outside watering, an unfinished lower level that could be finished as it has high ceilings and allows for ample storage spaces! One bedroom even has a walk in cedar closet for off season storage. Take the stairs from the second floor to the walk up attic which also has lots of storage spaces, and carefully climb up the Widow Watch stairs, and please stay on the blue and marked foot-steps. This is a rare opportunity, that does not come along very often, to purchase such a wonderful special home that we know you will fall in love with...
