Property Description
Welcome to 447 W Southern Avenue, a character-filled home in the heart of Muskegon! Situated on a desirable fenced corner lot, this spacious 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers 1,566 square feet of finished living space with flexibility that's hard to find. Currently configured as a single-family residence, the home also offers the potential to function as two separate living spaces with the installation of a barrier on the staircase. Featuring a full kitchen on both the main and upper levels along with separate exterior entrances, this property presents an excellent opportunity for multi-generational living, owner-occupants looking to offset expenses, or investors seeking additional income potential. Buyers should verify any intended use with local zoning and building requirements. Inside, you'll find a home filled with timeless character and original charm, ready for the next owner to restore, personalize, and make their own. The vaulted ceilings and classic fixtures in the living room provide warmth, charm, and an inviting space to gather. The partially finished basement offers additional usable space that's perfect for a rec room, game nights, hobbies, storage, or future finishing possibilities. Major updates provide added peace of mind, including a new furnace installed in 2020 and a new roof completed in 2023. The seller is also willing to make small improvements, making this an even more attractive opportunity for the next owner. Conveniently located just minutes from Downtown Muskegon, you'll enjoy quick access to local restaurants, breweries, shopping, entertainment, the farmers market, and all the excitement the city has to offer. Lake Michigan's beautiful beaches, parks, marinas, and miles of recreational trails are also just a short drive away. Whether you're searching for your next home or a property with outstanding investment potential, 447 W Southern Avenue is ready for its next chapter.
