About This Home
Looking for the perfect starter home or a great income-producing property? Look no further! This four-bedroom ranch in Detroit offers a blend of comfort and thoughtful updates. Hardwood floors run throughout the living room and three of the bedrooms, while the kitchen and fourth bedroom feature durable vinyl flooring. The kitchen also includes all-new appliances. Major upgrades provide peace of mind, including a new main electrical panel and updated wiring to a subpanel, along with new electric and Ethernet lines run underground to the garage. A tankless water heater ensures strong, efficient hot water throughout the home. Additional improvements include a sump pump and French drain system in the crawl space, with all plumbing and drains professionally inspected and flushed to the street, including the rear sewer line. The home also features a new garage door, a quiet “silent” bathroom fan, and mostly newer windows (with just four remaining original windows at the rear). The foundation was inspected in 2025 and is solid. With many more updates throughout, this home is move-in ready and full of value. Schedule your showing today!
