About This Home

As of September 2024

Welcome to 434 Calvin, a charming dollhouse located on a quiet street in Grosse Pointe Farms. Close to schools, markets, and playgrounds, this 2 bedroom/1.5 bath house was built in 1940 and designed by A. Foster Smith, an acclaimed local architect who built numerous other houses in the Pointes including grand Tudors in Grosse Pointe Park. Smith often worked in collaboration with noted builder, Alphonse DePaepe. The house was built with the best materials to stand the test of time. It is unique in that it has the footprint of a one floor ranch style house, yet it has many of the design features of a Federal era colonial. The best of all possible worlds! The interior and exterior have been freshly painted throughout. There is a formal dining room, lovely updated kitchen, den, and huge basement. The outside area is a garden lovers dream. The C of O has been completed and the HVAC furnace and hot water tank are newer. Peace and tranquility await you in this Grosse Pointe Farms gem.
