Own one of Metro Detroit's most unforgettable homes. Built in 1937 by Omar Reese, the Hazel Park Bottle House is a true one-of-a-kind property featuring thousands of glass bottles incorporated directly into its construction. Nearly 90 years later, this local landmark has been thoughtfully restored and updated for modern living while preserving the character that made it famous. Inside, you'll find approximately 1,225 sq. ft. with 2 bedrooms, an updated bath, bright living spaces, hardwood flooring and a renovated kitchen. The walkout lower level adds valuable flexibility, including a bonus room ideal for a home office, studio, hobby room or hangout space. A detached 2-car garage provides additional storage and everyday convenience. This is more than a house--it is a piece of Michigan folk architecture, a conversation piece and a home people remember after seeing it once.
