Beautiful woodwork, soaring ceilings, and unexpected nooks make this three-bedroom, two-full-bath home in Detroit’s MorningSide neighborhood anything but ordinary. Arched doorways, rich wood trim, and distinctive interior windows bring character to every turn. The living room’s dramatic vaulted ceiling and detailed wood staircase create a striking centerpiece, while a built-in workspace tucked beneath the stairs makes clever use of the layout. A cozy library with extensive built-in shelving and a coffered wood ceiling offers an inviting spot to read, work, or unwind. The separate dining room continues the craftsmanship with substantial wood ceiling beams, creating a memorable setting for everyday meals and gatherings.
Fresh paint in the downstairs bathroom, bedroom, kitchen, and dining room complements the home’s warm finishes. Updates include new A/C in 2026, a roof replaced in 2020, a tankless water heater installed in 2018, water filtration, first floor laundry, updated electrical, and a sewer cleanout with backflow prevention. The spacious unfinished basement offers room to create additional living space and is already plumbed for a third bathroom. A detached garage adds convenience and additional storage to a home filled with personality, thoughtful details, and more to discover around every corner.
