About this home
Set on more than an acre along the Clinton River, this distinctive Sterling Heights brick bungalow offers a rare combination of privacy, character and waterfront surroundings within the Utica School District. The deep lot creates a sense of separation from the road while opening to an expansive backyard framed by mature trees and direct river frontage. Inside, the home offers a warm, well-defined layout with hardwood flooring through much of the main level. The living and dining spaces flow naturally into an updated kitchen with newer appliances, while two main-floor bedrooms and a full bath provide flexibility for everyday living, guests or a home office. The upper level is dedicated to an impressive primary suite, creating a private retreat with generous proportions and its own full bath. A bright three-season room extends the living space toward the backyard and deck, offering a natural transition between the interior and the riverfront setting. The finished lower level adds valuable bonus space for recreation, hobbies, entertaining or additional living needs, along with laundry and storage. Fresh interior paint completed in 2026 complements the home's move-in-ready presentation. Outside, a detached 2-car garage, fenced dog-run area, sprinkler system, deck and expansive grounds add both function and versatility. With its uncommon acre-plus setting, Clinton River frontage and thoughtfully arranged living spaces, this property offers a level of privacy and character rarely found in Sterling Heights.

One Family Residential District
The one family districts are established to provide an environment suitable for families who typically have children. The districts are principally for one family dwellings at varying densities. The specific intent of these districts is to encourage the construction and continued use of one family dwellings and to prohibit the use of the land which would substantially interfere with the development of one family dwellings. The city also discourages any land use which, because of its character and size, would create requirements and costs for public services substantially in excess of those needed for the one family densities of that zoning district. The city also discourages any land use which would be incompatible or generate excessive traffic on local streets.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Agriculture
Livestock production
