Detroit’s Amazing Homes!
Detroit's Amazing Homes!
If you adore white columned Colonial mansions and thought you could never afford one, how about this 11,027sf 1902 historical beauty on 1.09 acres in Detroit's Indian Hill neighborhood? This fascinating neighborhood is on the National Register of Historic Places and encompasses the streets of Burns, Iroquois, and Seminole on the city's east side. A neighborhood over 100 years old, the homes in this community were designed by the leading architects of the day and are important due to the individuality expressed in the design styles chosen. Indian Hill was always known for its affluence and notable residents, one of whom was Edsel Ford.
The details in the craftsmanship in this particular home are stunning. Every room is filled with detailed millwork from the stacked crown moldings, tall wainscoting, decorative ceilings to mantels. Rooms are huge, ceilings are high and windows are huge, allowing the brilliant northern sunlight to fill the rooms. It's the kind of house where everything is so beautiful, you don't know where to look next! Though it has 8 bedrooms, 6 baths, a new boiler, updated electric and kitchen, we're drawn to the two solaria with their walls of paned and arched glass with spectacular views of the garden. It's not likely you'll ever run out of places to entertain. There are also nanny quarters on the second floor for a nanny or use as an in-law apartment or even a grown child who has returned to stay a spell . . as so many are bound to do today.
Now you'll want to get a tight grasp on something next to you. The price? $429k!
