REOPENING THE BIDDING ON THIS GREAT PROPERTY: The interest in this home was so great when we initially auctioned it on May 30th that our website crashed and bidders could not get through to submit their bids. To be fair to all, we'll offer it again on June 6th, after increasing our IT capacity.
Less than a block from Woodward on beautiful Chicago Blvd, this 3000 sq. ft. brick colonial sits on a generous lot and has several fireplaces. This home has 4 bedrooms, 4 baths, great lines and a grand presence. The roof, doors and 60 windows need repair or replacement. Upgrades to the electrical system, plumbing, and interior waterproofing is recommended. Replacement of the boiler system, kitchen, bathrooms and drywall is also recommended. Other cosmetic repairs include paint and flooring.
This property is in the local Boston-Edison Historic District. Purchasers will need to obtain Detroit Historic District Commission approval for all major exterior improvements.
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.
