About This Home

As of September 2019

Welcome to a brick two-family home. One of Detroit's finest near the East Indian Village. It is immaculate and professionally finished. Front to Back, lower to upper level. Impressive granite kitchen, re-stained hardwood floors throughout, entire property has been freshly painted with stained moldings and doors, unique decorative accents to showcase the natural fireplaces in each unit's living room, spacious dining rooms, lots of lighting, separate/private entries either from front or side; nice backyard, 2 car garage, back and front porches, new long cement driveway...(6-2019), lower unit has a bonus room that can be a den or library, 2 water heaters, 1 furnace, and much more. Just come on in and perhaps you may wish to live in one unit and rent out the other unit. So beautiful on a very nice street. All measurements are approximate.
