This single-floor residence offers a practical and well-organized layout designed for comfortable everyday living. The kitchen is equipped with warm honey-toned wood cabinetry providing ample storage, a white electric coil range, and a double-basin sink set beneath upper cabinets. Light-toned countertops and a light flooring surface give the kitchen a clean, bright appearance. A partial wall divider neatly separates the kitchen from the adjoining living area, which features wall-to-wall carpeting in a neutral tone that contributes to a cozy and inviting atmosphere. The open sightline between the kitchen and living space creates a connected feel throughout the main area. A hallway visible from the main living space leads further into the unit, offering access to additional rooms, including what appears to be a bedroom with a closet and a bathroom. Overhead lighting is present throughout, ensuring adequate illumination across all areas. The overall color palette is light and neutral, with beige and cream tones dominating the walls, floors, and fixtures, lending the space a clean and move-in-ready character.

South Lyon is a small Oakland County city about 40 miles west of downtown Detroit, where a genuine small-town atmosphere persists without feeling far removed from the broader metro area. Founded in 1832 as Thompson's Corners, the city has grown steadily while holding onto its compact, walkable downtown centered at 10 Mile Road and Lafayette Street. That downtown core draws residents with specialty shops, local cafes, and the historic South Lyon Theater, all anchored by one of the city's most recognizable landmarks, the Queen Anne Depot. Known locally as the "Witch's Hat" for its distinctive conical roof, the depot now operates as a history museum and inspired the name of the city's beloved craft brewery.
Residential life in South Lyon spans a range of housing styles, from established single-family neighborhoods to newer apartment communities offering one- and two-bedroom floor plans suited to a variety of lifestyles.

The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
