Thoughtfully designed Tudor in the Sherwood Forest Historic District of Detroit. This home is graciously proportioned for entertaining yet cozy enough for everyday living.
Beautifully updated with a custom kitchen by Millennium Cabinetry including stunning quartzite countertops and KitchenAid appliances. Original leaded glass and steel casement windows with new high-quality interior storms and custom window treatments throughout. Other historic features include an elegant oak-paneled library, wood-burning limestone fireplace in the living room, original slate flooring in the entryway and main hall, hardwood flooring, original 1930s tile in most bathrooms, solid oak doors, and more.
Upstairs, this four-bedroom, 3.5 bath home includes a spacious primary suite with a large principal bedroom, a light-filled nursery (currently used as an office) separated by the primary bath, and two guest rooms with en suite baths. The finished lower level extends the living area with a comfortable den with gas fireplace. The large laundry room contains a full second kitchen, perfect for catering, as well as ample room for storage. This home has central air conditioning and a newer (2019) energy-efficient gas furnace.
The main-floor heated sunroom—which can be accessed from both the living room and dining room—has high-efficiency aluminum-clad windows overlooking a landscaped garden, arranged around a magnificent, mature oak tree. Other outdoor highlights include bluestone patio with adjacent fountain (included in the sale), limestone paved pathways, an exposed aggregate driveway with brick detailing, front and rear landscape lighting, and an in-ground automatic sprinkler system. The two-car detached garage has automatic doors and a ChargePoint electric car charger.
The Sherwood Forest Historic District is a thriving neighborhood next to the Livernois “Avenue of Fashion” shops, eateries, and entertainment. Its central location is convenient not only to downtown Detroit but also to Ferndale, Royal Oak, and Birmingham.
