We are pleased to present this beautifully restored home in the coveted Boston-Edison Historic District. This is truly one of the most unique homes on the market in this area for several reasons. Imagine owning an iconic home steeped with history, yet enjoying modern features such as brand new vinyl windows, and a new forced air heating system with central AC. In 2026 this home will celebrate its 100 year anniversary. The exterior of the home maintains the same showstopping curb appeal as it did in 1916. If you're looking for a truly move-in ready home, this is it. You can have the confidence that you're buying a quality home - with strong bones and mechanical systems, not just cosmetic upgrades. The roof is completely brand new, as are all the bathrooms, kitchen, flooring, and tons of other high end finishes. This spacious home features 3 full bathrooms and 2 half baths. 4 bedrooms, and large spaces for entertaining guests. Walking distance from community parks and cool shops like The Congregation Coffee. Just a short drive from New Center, Midtown, and downtown Detroit. Full interactive walkthrough of the property is available. Schedule a showing today! (Home is under 24 security and alarmed).
This home is located in an NEZ-Homestead district offering a tax abatement for principal residents - around a 15-20% reduction in property taxes!
