Property Description

Nestled in the highly desirable Chesterfield Hills neighborhood, 301 Cowley blends timeless character with extensive modern updates in one of East Lansing's most beloved settings. Surrounded by picturesque tree-lined streets where each home is uniquely designed, and just a short walk or bike ride to MSU campus and Downtown East Lansing, this charming historic classic offers the perfect balance of convenience, warmth, and style. From the moment you arrive, the stunning professional landscaping, concrete driveway and walks, and inviting curb appeal set the tone. Inside, beautiful hardwood floors flow throughout most of the home, including the living room, dining room, sunroom, office, and all upstairs bedrooms. The living room is anchored by a cozy wood-burning fireplace that is lined, capped, and sealed--ready for relaxing winter evenings at home. The thoughtfully updated kitchen features granite countertops, a custom island, tile backsplash, new refrigerator and antique glass cabinet accents. An adorable sunroom with a gorgeous veranda overlooks the beautifully landscaped front yard and charming neighborhood. The main floor also offers a flexible bedroom or office space along with an updated half bath for added convenience. Step out to a large, screened-in porch overlooking your private, fenced backyard retreat, complete with a peaceful pond with an electric fountain and a chemical-free vegetable garden. You will love the zones of gorgeous landscaping including a rain garden and enjoy listening to the MSU Marching Band practice from the comfort of your own home. Most of the energy-efficient windows (2007) have new glass inserts installed (2025), new dining room windows (2025), custom shades throughout, beautiful steel exterior doors (2009), and new Hardie board siding on the rear of the home (2024). Upstairs, you'll find 3 bedrooms with hardwood flooring, timeless door hardware, cedar-lined closet spaces, and an oversized bathroom featuring a tub, dual sinks, stained glass detail, and skylight window. One bedroom includes an impressive two-sided oversized closet with hallway access. The lower level includes a finished rec room, laundry, abundant storage and endless possibilities. Additional updates and features include new sewer line, 200-amp electrical panel, on-demand hot water heater and new plumbing (2015), new garage door (2025), new roof (2017), new furnace (2017), and MANY more (see attachment for all updates). With so many major improvements already completed, this exceptional home offers peace of mind while preserving the timeless charm and character that everyone loves in the heart of East Lansing.
