Located blocks from Detroit’s riverfront, this charming bungalow offers a range of amenities to the purchaser - including a sidelot! The lot immediately to the south of the auction house (at 674 Algonquin); will be auctioned along with the house.
Built in 1922, the auction house itself features:
An impressive full-front sun porch
Ribbon windows
Wood detailing
Handsome brick fireplace framed by in-built shelving
Wide entryways, creating an open layout
A spacious kitchen adds to the property’s appeal.
The house’s location just blocks from several riverfront parks and close by the burgeoning Jefferson Avenue shopping area and Grosse Point border makes this home all the more attractive.
Many repairs and renovations to the property will be necessary and potential buyers should review the presale inspection report for more information. Please also note that purchasers are responsible for the 2014 property taxes at the time of closing.
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.
