Center-entrance Colonial in the heart of Grosse Pointe Farms offering 2,210 sqft of above-grade living space and a layout that sets it apart in this price range. A defining feature is the vaulted, step-down family room with cathedral ceilings, skylights, custom built-ins, and a wood-burning fireplace—filled with natural light and opening to the backyard and cedar deck. A separate living room with a second wood-burning fireplace provides additional gathering space. Hardwood floors run throughout much of the home, with carpet in the family room.
The eat-in kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, quartz counters with matching backsplash, newer stainless appliances, and an efficient layout, flowing into both the family room and formal dining room with bay window. Multiple dining areas offer flexibility for everyday living.
A traditional foyer and separate rear mudroom entry with slate floors and coat closet add everyday functionality.
Upstairs offers a spacious primary bedroom and additional bedrooms with natural light. The full bathroom has been fully updated with soaking tub and separate shower.
The basement adds 875 sqft of usable space. Located along the shoulder of Ridge Rd, the basement is consistently dry.
Updates include furnace and central air (2020), roof approx. 5 years, and attic ventilation fan.
Set on a 50’ x 151’ lot with a new privacy fence and retaining wall. Detached garage with adjacent 9’ x 16’ shed with electrical. In-ground irrigation system professionally maintained.
Located near Kerby Elementary, Brownell Middle School, Jerry’s, Pier Park, Lake St. Clair, and the Country Club of Detroit. Convenient access to Moross Rd and I-94.
