About This Home

As of November 2024

Welcome to Booth Cottage, an idyllic 3-bed cape cod home situated on a wooded bluff overlooking the Kalamazoo River in Allegan Michigan. Art Booth had a passion for woodworking. He was a boat surveyor, and built this delightful home with charming nautical features that point to its sound mid-century construction; handmade cabinets throughout, built-in bookcases, custom wooden banister, and hardwood floors. His clever architectural approach take advantage of the home's beautiful views and neighborhood. A grand Norway Maple anchors the property's approach and is the center of its long circular driveway. Upon entering the front door, you are greeted by the broad bay windows showcasing the rear lawn's massive arching ''Grandma White Oak'', as well as sweeping views of Armintrout Nature Preserve across the river. To the left of the front door, the entrance hallway also leads to a full bathroom, deep pantry/coat closet, and main floor bedroom. Back by the living room is the home's central staircase, leading to the second floor's 2 additional bedrooms and 1/2 bath, all with spectacular views. The dining rm. is open to the charming cottage kitchen. The 3-season breezeway/mudroom was recently renovated, leading to a covered porch and access to a large one-stall attached garage. Property also has a full basement, new roof, and many additional updates. There is no property quite like this in Allegan County! All recent updates were completed to maintain the beauty, character and heritage of Booth Cottage for many years to come!
