Single Family Residence in Detroit, MI

Timeless Tudor architecture and abundant natural light define this five-bedroom home in Detroit’s beloved University District. Classic details shine throughout, including leaded-glass windows, arched doorways, original plasterwork, and refinished hardwood floors on the first and second levels. The spacious living room features a prominent fireplace and a wall of leaded- and stained-glass windows, while the formal dining room offers elegant molding and great flow for everyday living or entertaining. A light-filled library or home office with built-in shelving adds versatility and charm. Upstairs, four generous bedrooms and two original full bathrooms provide a solid foundation for future updates. The third floor features a fifth bedroom and a full bathroom that has been gutted—an excellent opportunity to create a private suite, guest space, or studio. Several rooms have been freshly painted, and a central cooling system was recently added for warm-weather comfort. The backyard includes room for gardening and play along with a newer storage shed. This home offers the ideal blend of character and potential, giving the next owner the opportunity to modernize the kitchen and baths to their taste while preserving the charm that makes the University District so special. The property is also located within the NEZ-Homestead zone, offering significant property tax savings to the new owner. The neighborhood is one of Detroit’s few with a Special Assessment District (SAD). Each parcel contributes an annual $175 assessment that supports 24/7 security patrols, snow removal, and mosquito abatement—enhancing comfort, peace of mind, and overall upkeep. Residents enjoy tree-lined streets, an active community, and proximity to the Detroit Golf Club, Palmer Park, and the Avenue of Fashion. A rare chance to customize a classic Tudor in a highly sought-after neighborhood.
