BACK ON MARKET & TRANSFORMED! Historic Brick Beauty with Expert Craftsmanship and Modern Updates. We heard you, and we made it right. After a brief pause to perfect the details, this stunning 5-bedroom, 2.5-bath brick home in the coveted Jefferson Chalmers neighborhood is back, and the quality speaks for itself. Skilled professionals were brought in to refresh the interior paint and finish work, ensuring the home now shines as brightly as its potential. Located on one of Detroit’s last remaining historic red brick roads near Grosse Pointe, the property now features a brand-new custom stone fireplace that anchors the living space. It combines the charm of the 1920s with clean, modern living, and the sleek frameless glass shower in the downstairs bath adds a touch of contemporary luxury. Beyond the cosmetic updates, major improvements offer true peace of mind, including a newer roof with a 14-year warranty and newer windows with a 30-year warranty, giving you confidence in your long-term investment. Additional highlights include a sun-drenched sunroom, fully updated bathrooms, fresh new flooring throughout, a move-in-ready kitchen with brand-new appliances and crisp finishes, and a spacious two-car garage. The location is ideal, just 10 minutes to downtown, Belle Isle, and the Riverwalk, nestled within a quiet, long-standing community where neighbors know each other by name. This home was priced to sell before, and now with thousands in added upgrades and corrected workmanship, it is an exceptional value. Do not wait. Schedule your private tour today and experience the transformation for yourself.
