A full front porch welcomes you to this 1926 Bungalow-style gem. Inside, visitors will pass through leaded glass doors to enter a spacious and light-filled living room complete with cove ceilings and an arched brick fireplace. A carved wood mantle and signature Bungalow-style windows add to the room’s historic charm. The home also features a separate dining room and a kitchen with original built-in cabinets and vintage farm style sink and drainboard. At 1,500 square feet in size, the property contains 4 well-lit bedrooms and 1 full bath, featuring subway and hexagonal tiles, a built-in medicine cabinet and original bathtub. A small back porch leads to a spacious backyard with a detached 2-car garage.
The property’s location just steps from the calming waters of the Detroit River, highly-regarding riverfront parks, shops and restaurants of nearby Jefferson Avenue, and the Grosse Pointe border add to the house’s appeal. Though is solid condition, the property will require a range of repairs, from refurbishing hardwood floors to completing a kitchen overhaul, among other fixes. For more information, please consult the attached presale inspection report.
