Welcome to 1925 Chicago in Detroit's Historic Boston-Edison neighborhood! Located on the gorgeous tree-lined boulevard, this 1918 all-brick colonial stands out with modern comforts & amenities while maintaining incredible historic curb appeal! The home underwent a complete renovation in 2020 including new HVAC, all new flooring, updated bathrooms & kitchen, new driveway, & much more. Since then, a new 2-car garage was built as well as numerous upgrades in the last year to enhance the functionality and longevity of the home (ask for a list of upgrades!) The current owners have made significant improvements including masonry repair, historical tuckpointing, full historical cedar soffit replacement, vinyl dormer siding upgraded to Hardie, roofing upgrades, electrical upgrades, plumbing upgrades, new dining room flooring, & a new fireplace! Step inside and enjoy over 3300 sqft of living space featuring 6 Bedrooms & 3.5 Bathrooms with at least 1 bedroom and bathroom on each of the 3 finished floors. The first floor offers a truly spacious living room with stunning fireplace, a massive dining/family room with 10 windows (wow!), and a beautiful kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Rounding out this level is a rare first floor bedroom and half bath! Heading up to the second floor, you'll be stunned by the 2 primary suites with en-suite bathrooms, in addition to the 2 other generous sized bedrooms on this level. The finished third floor provides another bedroom with en-suite bathroom as well as extra storage space. PRIME LOCATION!! Just a 5 minute walk to neighborhood favorite, The Congregation, and the newly opened pizza spot, The Rectory! Plus, Gordon Park right next door. Less than 10 minutes to Downtown, 7 minutes to Midtown, & 5 minutes to New Center! This home is located in an NEZ-Homestead district offering a tax abatement for principal residents - around a 15-20% reduction in property taxes!
