About This Home

Investor’s dream or perfect project for a visionary homeowner! Welcome to 1536 Chicago, a stately brick, stone and stucco Tudor located in Detroit’s prestigious Boston-Edison Historic District. This expansive home boasts over 3,000 square feet of living space, featuring 6 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and countless original architectural details waiting to be brought back to life. From the grand staircase to the ornate woodwork, leaded glass windows, and fireplace mantels, the bones of this early 20th-century gem remain strong and full of character. The layout includes a spacious formal dining room, generous living spaces, and a large third floor perfect for conversion into a guest suite, home office, or additional bedrooms. This property offers a rare opportunity to restore a classic home in one of Detroit’s most sought-after historic neighborhoods. Boston-Edison is known for its tree-lined boulevards, tight-knit community, and stunning historic homes—many of which have been fully restored and are valued significantly higher. The home is being sold as-is, offering maximum flexibility for renovation. With the right vision and updates, this could be a showcase property or a profitable investment. Don’t miss your chance to be a part of the Boston-Edison revival. Schedule your showing today and imagine the possibilities!
