MLS # 20261029566 (Realcomp)

Renovation opportunity with rare upside in a prime location—this classic colonial sits on a 50’ x 152’ lot with a long driveway, detached garage, and an existing rear addition that expands the main level footprint. Priced to reflect condition, the property requires a full renovation and is ideal for investors, builders, or buyers looking to create a custom home. The current layout offers strong potential for reconfiguration, including an open-concept kitchen/dining/living space anchored by the rear addition, while the second floor features three well-sized bedrooms and a full bath footprint suitable for redesign. Full basement offers excellent potential with approximately 7.5 ft ceilings—unusually high for the area—and a solid foundation for future finishing or storage. Expansive backyard provides room for outdoor living and further improvements. Newer roof (Dec 2021/Jan 2022) on both the house and detached garage. Located within the Richard Elementary, Brownell Middle School, and Grosse Pointe South High School district, and just minutes from resident-only Neff Park on Lake St. Clair. Walkable to shops and restaurants on The Hill, along Mack Ave, and in The Village. Property taxes currently reflect non-homestead status and may be lower for an owner-occupant. Buyer to assume responsibility for completing any required city certificate of occupancy items. Property is being sold as-is. Cash or renovation financing recommended. Rare opportunity to unlock value in a high-demand location. Sale is subject to probate court approval. CAD files are available; scan QR code in photos for access.
