Opportunity awaits with this charming historic Colonial situated on a desirable corner lot in Detroit. Filled with original character and architectural details, this home offers a great foundation for a buyer looking to add their own finishing touches and bring its full potential to life.

The third-floor attic area offers additional potential and could be finished as an extension of the primary bedroom, office, dressing room, or bonus living space.
Outside, the backyard has a unique courtyard feel with an old pond that could be restored into a beautiful focal point. A detached 2-car garage provides additional parking and storage.
With its historic charm, spacious layout, corner-lot setting, and room for further improvements, this property offers an exciting opportunity to create something truly special.
