About This Property

Award-winning historic restoration set on a rare 2.5-acre lot along 500 ft of the Rouge River, this impeccably updated 1920s colonial revival offers a unique blend of timeless architecture, private riverfront access, and a hiking path on the largest lot in the neighborhood. Recognized with First Place in Historic Renovation/Restoration (50+ Years) at the 2024 Detroit Design Awards, the home showcases exceptional craftsmanship while preserving its historic character. The spacious living room features a fireplace, crown molding, and French doors opening to a covered patio. The formal dining room flows seamlessly into the family room with direct access to the backyard patio. The beautifully renovated kitchen features quartzite countertops, a large soapstone island, designer finishes, a generous breakfast nook, and a walk-in pantry. The enclosed and expanded historic breezeway creates an oversized mudroom and utility area connecting to the rare four-car attached garage, complete with additional first-floor laundry. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers an ensuite bath with double vanities and a Euro-glass shower. Four additional bedrooms, a full bathroom, and a convenient second-floor laundry complete the level. A bonus room above the garage provides potential for an additional bedroom suite, studio, or flex space. The finished basement adds valuable living space with a game room, gym or flex room with egress window, and a woodshop. Outside, mature trees, three patio areas, a hot tub, produce garden, and stunning views of your private Rouge River peninsula create a setting unlike anything else on the market. Modern upgrades include 200-amp electrical service, a heat pump water heater, multiple HVAC systems, EV charging capability, and a whole-house Generac generator with advanced HVAC and EV management.
