About This Home

The perfect price, the perfect home at the perfect time in Historic Berry Subdivision — one of Detroit’s few residential communities with direct access to the Riverfront — 505 Fiske Drive offers an exceptional opportunity to own a timeless Tudor-inspired residence rich in architectural character and historic charm. Surrounded by mature trees and set on an expansive park-like lot, this distinctive property combines classic craftsmanship with warm, light-filled living spaces in a truly unique lifestyle setting. Offering approximately 2,500 square feet, the home features five bedrooms, two full baths, and one half bath, along with a third-floor in-law suite complete with a private bedroom and full bath. An unfinished attic provides additional room for storage, creative space, or future expansion potential. Inside, rich hardwood flooring, original millwork, beautifully preserved wood doors, and expansive windows create a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout. Generously proportioned rooms and a flexible floor plan offer ideal spaces for everyday living, entertaining, studios, offices, or multigenerational living. Berry Sub’s close proximity to parks, coffee shops, restaurants, neighborhood retail, and everyday conveniences creates a walkable and connected experience unlike any other along Detroit’s east riverfront communities. A rare architectural offering with historic soul, flexible living space, and an unmatched location within one of Detroit’s most treasured historic neighborhoods.
