    What's special

    Tucked beneath a canopy of mature oak trees in the heart of Bloomfield Hills Proper, 401 Dunston Rd is a distinguished estate set on 2.1 private acres—offering timeless architecture and enduring presence just minutes from Cranbrook. This meticulously maintained 5-bed, 5.2-bath home offers nearly 5,000 sq ft plus a fully finished daylight lower level. A slate roof, hand-carved limestone entry, and leaded glass windows establish a stately tone on arrival. Inside, arched thresholds, detailed plasterwork, and hardwood flooring reveal craftsmanship rarely seen today. The formal living room is filled with natural light and anchored by a traditional fireplace, while the paneled library offers an intimate setting with custom millwork, built-in shelving, and a limestone hearth. The kitchen has been completely reimagined with custom cabinetry, intricate wood detailing, granite countertops, and high-end appliances. A restored icebox adds charm, while the sunlit breakfast nook offers panoramic garden views. The adjacent sunroom and richly styled formal dining room further elevate the main level. All five bedrooms are upstairs, each with its own private bathroom. The primary suite is tucked away with its own entry, vanity area, and spacious bath. The bathrooms have all been updated to reflect the home’s classic aesthetic while enhancing function. The finished daylight lower level includes a large living area, flexible rec space, and ample storage. A partial house generator adds peace of mind. Outside, manicured hedges frame winding brick paths and stone patios, while mature trees and flowering shrubs offer year-round beauty and privacy. This rare offering blends architectural integrity, meaningful updates, and quiet sophistication on one of Bloomfield Hills’ most prestigious streets. Back on the market after the prior buyer withdrew for personal reasons—not due to condition. The home inspected exceptionally well with no issues.
