About This Home

As of June 2020

Immaculate and charming: This two-bedroom, two-bath Dutch Colonial is a gem, located one block from Lake St. Clair and The Hill. The living room has detailed cove ceilings, a Louis XV replica marble fireplace, built-in book cases, box-paneling, pristine vinyl flooring and French doors to a 3-season room, overlooking small, private, shady gardens. There's a bay window in the formal dining room. The kitchen is vintage, no-frills and in excellent order. Natural light abounds throughout. The large master bedroom has an elegant, marble, Victorian fireplace and lush neutral carpet (over hidden hardwood floors), large closets and private full-bath. A lovely second bedroom adjoins another bathroom, of character. There's a 3rd full-bath and finished space for a bedroom, den or office in the paneled basement, which features a raised hardwood floor, built-in book cases and a walk-in cedar closet. Newer roof. Newer boiler. New hot water heater. This unique house is cozy, clean, elegant and dry.
