Just off the corner of Woodrow Wilson and Chicago Blvd., this beautiful Arts and Crafts home sits in the heart of the Boston Edison community, minutes from Henry Ford Hospital, Gordon Park, M-10, the future terminus of M1-RAIL, and numerous New Center shopping and dining destinations. This charming 1916 home boasts wall-to-wall hardwood floors, ornate raised-panel wainscoting, historic subway tile restrooms, and a handsome yellow brick façade. Though in beautiful condition, the home requires bathroom overhauls, plasterwork, and cosmetic improvements, among many other repairs.
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.
