Nestled on two private wooded acres between Saranac and Ionia, this custom-built contemporary home blends modern architecture with peaceful country living. Completed in 2022, this rare stick-frame modern barn-inspired home offers clean lines, dramatic vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light, and a thoughtfully designed open floor plan that feels both spacious and inviting. The heart of the home is the stunning great room, where soaring ceilings, clerestory windows, and custom wood accent walls create an impressive yet comfortable gathering space. The kitchen is equally striking, featuring custom poured epoxy countertops, tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, extensive cabinetry, a large center island with seating, and a walk-in pantry/laundry room with convenient access to the rear patio. The main-floor primary suite offers privacy and comfort with a beautifully finished full bath, while two additional bedrooms provide flexible living arrangements. Architectural details continue throughout the home with oversized windows, modern trim, designer lighting, wood feature walls, luxury finishes, and durable low-maintenance materials inside and out. Outside, enjoy complete privacy surrounded by mature hardwoods. A spacious concrete patio overlooks the wooded backyard and offers an ideal setting for entertaining or relaxing. The property also includes a 24' × 36' pole barn providing exceptional storage, workshop, or hobby space, along with a beautifully finished two-story recreation building that offers endless possibilities as a studio, home office, guest quarters, playhouse, or hobby retreat. A fenced animal enclosure and chicken coop further enhance the property's versatility for those seeking a small hobby farm lifestyle. Located just minutes from both Ionia and Saranac with convenient access to Grand Rapids, this one-of-a-kind property combines modern design, functional outbuildings, and peaceful country living in a setting rarely available.
