Located among the historic homes of Detroit’s Bagley neighborhood, this distinctive Tudor style duplex displays hints of the storybook medieval, from its battlements and arched stone doorways to its undersized second story balcony. Built in 1930, the property features the casement windows, steeply-pitched rooflines, patterned brickwork, and stone quoin of the Tudor style, as well as original plaster moldings, a stone arch and tile fireplace, and original Milk and Package Receiver. The house’s 2640 square feet contain a total of 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, in addition to a kitchen in each unit. The distinctive architecture of the house and inviting streets of the Bagley community are complemented by its proximity to the burgeoning Livernois Corridor, Mumford High School, Palmer Park, University of Detroit Jesuit High School, and the M-10 expressway. The purchaser should plan to carry out a range of repairs from kitchen renovation and bathroom overhauls to plumbing, electrical, and HVAC repairs, among other 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.
