About This Home
Built in 1924, this historic brick home is full of timeless character and incredible potential. Located on one of Highland Park's most desirable blocks, just one block from Woodward Avenue and only minutes from everything Downtown Detroit has to offer! This is your opportunity to be part of the area's ongoing revitalization. With the potential for 6 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, this home features 13-foot ceilings, a beautiful original wood staircase, an original fireplace, original doors, and solid hardwood flooring throughout much of the home. The expansive front porch and classic brick exterior provide outstanding curb appeal. The renovation has already begun, with most of the rough electrical completed, new joists and structural supports installed, and new tongue-and-groove subflooring in select areas. The home has been taken mostly down to the studs, offering a true blank canvas while preserving many of its original architectural details. A new boiler is included with the sale and will be delivered at closing. Additional features include a 2-car detached garage, alley access for convenient parking, and solid bones ready for restoration. Whether you're an investor looking for your next project or a homeowner wanting to restore a historic masterpiece, this property offers exceptional upside in one of Metro Detroit's fastest-growing neighborhoods.
