612 W Webster Rd, Royal Oak, MI 48073

Solitude in the city. Like many houses on this end of W. Webster Rd, turnover is rare. This home has had only two owners in the last 40 years. This is a little known road, even though it’s a block north of the iconic Vinsetta Blvd. This classic brick and vinyl colonial has coved ceilings, a natural gas fireplace, a rare, eat-in kitchen and a dining room. It has a living room AND a family room (with potential to turn into a fourth bedroom). Hardwood floors flow throughout. Both bathrooms were remodeled to the studs. The closets, tilt-in windows, garage roof, front patio and back fence are all newer. New A/C and water heater installed in 2022. The 5-burner, convection gas range and Bosch dishwasher stay – as do all the appliances. Kitchen also has granite countertops, Kraftmaid cabinets and a floor to ceiling pantry cupboard with pullouts and space to add additional cupboards/counter space. Bedrooms have updated ‘California-style’ closets. There is a custom-made Dutch door to the basement. The basement has 10 industrial grade electrical outlets and is illuminated by ten overhead lights (extra light bulbs included!). The garage has newer, interior electric/lights and an exterior electrical outlet. Four million dollar plus new-builds across the street are a testament to the desirability of this neighborhood! The tunnel of trees on this no-outlet street leads to the sweeping vista that is Marais Park where each season brings sledders, cyclists, picnickers, leaf-peepers and even the occasional golfer. Cross-country skiers take advantage of the Vinsetta median strip where there will also be two natural water gardens by summer’s end. For those inclined, the neighborhood hosts a summer picnic at Waterworks Park which has a play scape and two tennis courts. And the neighborhood lights up with votives lining the streets at Christmas time. Home is within walking distance of four parks, schools, the Royal Oak Historical Society and Museum, the Orson Starr House, and a Planet Fitness!
