6425 Ridgemont Drive SE Grand Rapids MI 49546 MLS #24058816

This truly unique property sits on a 3/4 acre corner lot with 2 driveways, two 2-stall garages and 2 front entrances. Optimally located within walking distance to Cascade Township Park, within a short drive to the I-96 and M-6 freeways, library, shops and restaurants along 28th street (Meijer, D&W Market, Target, Costco, Walmart, Culver’s, etc). The house was custom built by the original owners with several distinctive features such as a chef’s kitchen with commercial grade appliances and butcher block counters, whole house lighting automation system, whole house sound system, and local network system via ethernet ports in most rooms. *The south (Ridgemont) entrance opens to the main living room with a gas fireplace, dining area and kitchen, along with a powder room near the garage. Adjacent to the kitchen is a small pantry/office room. Stairs to the 2nd floor lead to a spacious hallway or loft, owner’s suite with a walk-in closet and bath with heated tiles, three additional bedrooms and a full bath with washer and dryer. Stairs to the basement lead to a family/rec room that opens to the patio through French doors, sizable utility and storage rooms, and the favorite room of the family – the home theater! This dedicated home theater boasts a 100″ projector screen, plenty of seating (currently set up for 13 adults), and comes fully equipped with well-reviewed high quality audio and video equipment so it’s ready for use the first day you move in! Upgraded in 2020 for 4K HDR compatibility. The Aperion speaker set up is 7.2.4 for true surround sound with Dolby Atmos. *Entering through the west (Thornapple River Dr) door, you are greeted by a spacious living space with 10 foot ceilings, a pair of decorative Tuscan columns and four multi-function areas that can satisfy every family member’s interests and hobbies. They can be turned into a library, a music room (a baby grand piano fits perfectly under the two chandeliers!), a work-out room, or even a small dance studio. One of these spaces includes hookups to the whole house sound and network systems. The elegant staircase with a large window and statement chandelier leads down to the guest suite. This part of the basement has a full kitchen, full bath, living/dining room, storage room with laundry hook-up, and up to two bedrooms. One room has a sliding door that opens to the patio. The other room can function as a bedroom or an office. This suite is also perfect for extended family living or even to rent out to help pay the mortgage *The recently renovated patio is a great place to gather around for a barbeque on summer afternoons or for a cozy fire on chilly nights. A steep hill on the side of the yard is perfect for sledding in the winter or a slip and slide in the summer. And a stately ash tree near the back edge of the yard provides a perfect spot of shade for a hammock and some lazy summer reading and napping. The entire roof was just replaced in July 2024.
