This sparkling clean, remodeled apartment is a comfortable mix of new and old, located on the second floor, overlooking the lake, and is approximately 600 sq ft.

When you open the many windows, there is often a nice breeze, which flows through the apartment. There are window air conditioning units. There are multiple trees surrounding the area. We are NOT a big complex with tons of people. You will be on a first name, friendly basis with the owners! The apartment has two bedrooms, one bath; a large living room/dining combo, bathroom with tub/shower with very large linen closet. There is a roomy and efficiently laid-out galley kitchen with stainless steel refrigerator and stove, lots of storage, and a beautiful view of the lake. There are closets or cupboards in every room. Most of the rooms are blessed with windows overlooking the lake. The apartment is on the second floor. There is one flight of stairs from the front parking lot, but in back, there are only 3 steps coming up from the back parking lot to the back entry deck. This "farm-house-comfortable" building is a former schoolhouse built in 1889 and has 4 apartments of various sizes which all are unique from the others. It is situated in a residential district in the Village of Caledonia on a street which ends into the stunningly beautiful Park. The apartment building is within a stone's throw of Emmons Lake, a wild, stream-fed fishing lake on which you can Kayak or rowboat, or even wade or swim (in the park); and within a short stroll to the gorgeous, very well-equipped County Park with multiple playgrounds, ball diamonds, lake frontage, stream, and access to the wonderful 10-mile-long paved Paul Henry-Thornapple Trail to walk, bike, or rollerblade through woods and farmland. You can walk all the way around the lake, too, on a partially paved and partially wild trail. The trail leads to the library and shopping. From the apartment, walk, bike, or golf-cart to the snack shop/ice cream store, restaurants, and hair salon. Drive a short distance to more snack shops, grocery store, Dollar General, pharmacies, multiple places to eat at quick-stop or sit-down restaurants. There is a hardware store, car dealership and more. Nearby are Davenport University, Amazon Warehouse, and Ford Airport. M-6 is nearby with easy access to I-96 and US 131.
