About This Home
Step into Detroit's history with this classic 1928 brick colonial in the sought-after Bagley District. As one of the earliest homes built on the block, it features timeless charm, beautiful curb appeal, and convenient street parking right out front. Inside, enjoy spacious living and dining areas, original architectural details, hardwood floors, and abundant natural light. The old alleyway behind the property offers rare potential—convert the garage into a studio, create a private garden retreat, or bring to life whatever unique vision you can imagine. The unfinished attic could become a fourth bedroom or office, and the basement's storage rooms offer flexible space for a gym, workshop, or new layout. Located minutes from U of D Mercy, Marygrove, and the Avenue of Fashion, this home provides easy access to shops, dining, schools, and major freeways. A solid brick home with character, location, and room to grow—ready for your vision.
