Stately and timeless, this elegant brick Colonial sits proudly on one of Grosse Pointe Shores’ most private streets — a true hidden gem tucked away on a peaceful cul-de-sac just a stone’s throw from Lake St. Clair. Step inside and be greeted by a stunning two-story foyer with sweeping staircase and tall ceilings that set the tone for the gracious scale of this home. Spacious formal rooms flow beautifully, offering the perfect blend of elegance and comfort. The kitchen features rich wood cabinetry, an island with seating, and a bright breakfast area for casual dining—all bathed in natural light. The adjacent library is a reader’s dream, wrapped wall-to-wall with custom, hand-crafted built-ins designed by a finish carpenter. A formal living room with natural fireplace and a formal dining room just off the kitchen provide the ideal setting for entertaining. Modern conveniences include ceiling speakers, an intercom system, built-in central vacuum, hardwired alarm system, and a whole-house standby generator—comfort and security seamlessly blended into this traditional design. First-floor laundry, circular drive and an attached garage add daily ease. Upstairs you’ll find four generous bedrooms and three full baths, each offering exceptional closet space. Downstairs, the finished lower level includes a recreation room with additional full bath (making it a total of 4 full baths) and the home’s show-stopping feature—a private indoor sports court! Originally built as a racquetball court, it’s perfect for year-round pickleball, a golf simulator, or even a half basketball court. The possibilities are endless. Out back, a private brick patio framed by mature landscaping provides a peaceful retreat for relaxing or entertaining. Built to last and designed to be lived in—59 Fordcroft is a home of substance, craftsmanship, and enduring style.
