A single-family bungalow in the Minimal Traditional style, this charming home offers an inviting front porch, stone wall-cladding, and open interior layout. Built in 1953, the house features a large living room, in-built shelving, a counter bar, and a detached garage. Particularly notable is the finished basement, which includes mid-century era wood panelling, as well as a bedroom and a full bath. Counting those rooms in the basement, the house contains 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, making it perfect for a growing family. The property additionally benefits from its location on a tree-shaded block of Detroit’s Boynton neighborhood, just moments from nearby Kemeny Recreation Center and I-75 expressway and a short drive from the shopping and dining options of neighboring Southwest neighborhoods and Downriver communities. While in decent condition, the purchaser should plan on carrying out a variety of necessary renovations and repairs, ranging from bathroom and kitchen renovations to repairs to the house’s electrical and plumbing systems. Please see the attached presale inspection for a broader list of required fixes.
Please note that the rehab cost will often cost more than the winning bid price. Failure to bring a property up to code within 6 months will result in forfeiture of property (9 months for historic properties). Auction dates are subject to change. Check the site regularly to be aware of any schedule changes.
