Welcome to this beautifully maintained all-brick bungalow located north of Nine Mile in Oak Park, just a short distance to the shops, dining, and nightlife of downtown Ferndale. This home reflects true pride of ownership and has been meticulously cared for over the years.
Featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, the home offers a clean, comfortable layout with a semi-updated kitchen complete with granite countertops and classic subway tile backsplash. The home is exceptionally clean and move-in ready.
The finished basement is an entertainer’s dream, offering a stone fireplace, built-in bar, and a full bathroom, perfect for gatherings, game nights, or additional living space. The roof was replaced in April 2020, providing peace of mind for years to come.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped yard earned the Oak Park Beautification Award in Summer 2024, further highlighting the care and attention this home has received. Conveniently located near major freeways, parks, and downtown Ferndale, this is a rare opportunity to own a well-loved home in a highly desirable location.
