Designed in 1929 by renowned architect Richard H. Marr for Lewis C. Miller, this nearly 3,878-square-foot residence is a distinguished example of Sherwood Forest’s architectural legacy.
Rich in character, the home welcomes you with a foyer featuring beautiful original tile that sets the tone for the craftsmanship throughout. Arched doorways, leaded and stained glass windows, custom millwork, and beautifully refinished hardwood floors enhance the interior. A striking wood-paneled library with built-ins and a fireplace anchors the main level, while gracious living and dining rooms are filled with natural light and timeless detail. Three fireplaces—located in the living room, library, and primary bedroom—add warmth and architectural interest.
Upstairs, six bedrooms and three and a half bathrooms provide flexibility for a variety of living arrangements, guests, or home offices. The finished basement expands the home’s functionality with additional living and recreational space and includes an additional half bath.
Set on one of the neighborhood’s most picturesque streets, this classic brick home reflects enduring craftsmanship and historic integrity within the Sherwood Forest Historic District.
Living in Sherwood Forest offers unique advantages: as part of a Special Assessment District, residents benefit from private security patrols and snow removal for just $300 per year. The location is exceptional—minutes from Palmer Park, the Detroit Golf Club, the Livernois Avenue of Fashion, and a short drive to downtown Detroit, Ferndale, and Birmingham.
This property also qualifies for the NEZ-H tax abatement, providing substantial long-term savings for the next owner.
