Rare opportunity in Detroit’s coveted Boston-Edison Historic District. This stately 1920s Tudor showcases an exceptional level of preserved original character, where timeless architectural elements blend seamlessly with warmth and livability offering craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated today. A true legacy property for the discerning buyer seeking authenticity and historic charm. Upon entry, a grand foyer and original staircase immediately impress. The home features original leaded glass windows that flood the interior with natural light, along with exquisite hand-carved plaster detailing and millwork throughout. The living room is anchored by a classic wood-burning fireplace, creating a warm and inviting focal point. The main level offers a spacious formal dining room, ideal for entertaining, along with a generous bonus living space that leads to a sunroom perfect for enjoying indoor-outdoor living. The kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances and complemented by a highly functional mudroom for added storage and convenience. Upstairs, the second floor features four spacious bedrooms, including a thoughtfully designed primary retreat with a dedicated bath and a dream walk-in closet occupying its own wing. An additional ensuite bedroom, currently used as a home office offers access to a private, fenced terrace. The third floor provides two additional bedrooms or flexible living spaces, along with another full bathroom, ideal for guests, hobbies, or work-from-home needs. The outdoor setting is equally impressive, featuring a fully fenced yard and a two-car garage. Numerous updates have been completed during ownership, enhancing both function and peace of mind. Ideally located just moments from local favorites like The Congregation, The Rectory, and Voigt Park. This home offers the perfect blend of historic prestige and modern lifestyle. A true masterpiece.
