Rutledge Manor, a grand four bedroom three bathroom circa 1920 residence, offers timeless Charleston character paired with thoughtful modern updates in one of the Upper Peninsula's most exciting and rapidly revitalizing locations, directly across from Hampton Park. With extensive renovations completed inside and out, the home preserves its historic character while providing updated systems, amenities, and comfortable modern living. A welcoming foyer introduces the home's gracious scale, featuring an open staircase, oversized pocket doors, 12-foot ceilings, original hardwood floors, and a beautiful authentic fireplace in the parlor/living room. Original interior doors, trim, and molding have been carefully scraped, sanded, and repainted, with many doors retaining their original hardware.The second floor features a large primary bedroom with en-suite bath and walk-in closet, adding valuable living space and functionality. There are three additional bedrooms on the second floor with access to a spacious, renovated guest bathroom complete with soaking tub/shower. Original hardwood floors, approximately 11-foot ceilings, exposed brickwork, and original fireplaces in two bedrooms preserve the character of the home. Canned lighting has also been added throughout the upstairs bedrooms. Significant infrastructure and exterior improvements include a new metal roof with waterproof barrier, ridge vents and rain gutters; energy-efficient windows; additional wall and attic insulation; two HVAC systems and ductwork; an energy-efficient tankless water heater; and updated plumbing and electrical systems. All bathrooms were updated and plumbing was further improved in 2022. The crawl space has also been professionally encapsulated. New French doors open from the rear of the home, while new stadium-style steps allow easy access to the large back deck and yard. Marble tile flooring has been added in the mudroom as well as in the full bathroom downstairs, which was full renovated in 2022 complete with a large tiled shower. Outside, a private side-entry courtyard leads to the fully fenced backyard and gardens. Landscape and hardscape improvements were completed in 2021, creating a private outdoor retreat with an oversized deck, and a large storage shed.
