    What's special

    Tucked within the architectural charm of Detroit’s beloved University District, this stately, fully renovated Tudor is a true hidden gem, rich in character yet thoughtfully updated to shine for modern living. From the moment you arrive, the home’s timeless presence is undeniable, enhanced by a new roof and gutters (November 2024) and classic Tudor detailing that has been beautifully preserved. Inside, historic craftsmanship takes center stage with exquisite leaded glass windows, intricate plaster friezes, and warm, inviting spaces that blend old-world elegance with fresh, refined updates. On the main level, natural light pours in, creating a seamless flow that leads to the back patio overlooking an expansive yard, an ideal setting for outdoor gatherings, gardening, or simply enjoying your own private green space. The home offers four spacious bedrooms, three full baths, two powder rooms, an owner’s suite and a private third floor guest suite complete with an ensuite bath, ideal for visitors, extended stays, or a quiet retreat. Everyday living is elevated with the convenience of second-floor laundry and the charm of a second-floor porch that’s perfect for morning coffee or evening unwinding. The newly remodeled lower level (2026) expands your living and entertaining options, offering flexible space for recreation, a media lounge, or home fitness. With key mechanical updates including new air conditioning (2021) and new electrical panel (2022) and a recently replaced roof, this home offers both peace of mind and enduring beauty. A rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready Tudor that honors its heritage while delivering the updates today’s buyers crave, all in one of Detroit’s most iconic neighborhoods.
