    What's special

    BACK ON THE MARKET due to buyer's financing falling through. Wake up to life on the water in this boat lover's paradise set on a canal with direct waterfront access to the Detroit River and Lake Saint Clair. Complete with a private boat house/indoor boat hoist, this home makes spontaneous sunset cruises and weekend adventures part of everyday life. The home underwent renovations in 2021, including new flooring, new carpet, new roof, and a new water heater. The modern kitchen features stainless steel appliances, while both bathrooms have also been updated. Step outside to your own backyard retreat, where a hot tub awaits after long days on the water. When you're ready to explore the surrounding area, enjoy the unbeatable convenience of being minutes away from Coriander and Grosse Pointe Park. This waterfront gem delivers the perfect blend of modern updates, location, and canal-front living--a rare opportunity you won't want to miss. Grants ranging from $3,500 to $10,000 are available through First Merchants Bank to help eligible buyers with down payment or closing costs. Program availability depends on buyer qualification.
