With a stunning yellow brick facade, elegant wainscoting, leaded glass doors, arched woodwork, intricate plaster medallion details, two Pewabic-style tile fireplaces, vintage subway tile bathrooms, full porch, two balconies, this 1926 duplex exemplifies Roaring Twenties architectural grandeur. Situated in the heart of Russell Woods, this lavish home is situated on a beautiful block near M-10 and I-96, the University of Detroit Mercy, Zussman Playground, and the resurgent Avenue of Fashion commercial district. Among the dizzying array of grand architectural features on all three stories, visitors will find six sunny bedrooms, two full bathrooms, two large sunrooms, formal parlors, and a basement bar. Although a striking home with numerous assets, the purchaser should plan on completing many repairs, including replacing a bathtub, plaster and paint improvements, a kitchen overhaul and extensive landscaping.
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.
