Classic English Cottage Colonial charm meets modern updates and an unbeatable Grosse Pointe Park lifestyle at 970 Lakepointe. Tucked quietly South of Jefferson, this beautifully maintained three-bedroom home offers the best of both worlds – a peaceful, walkable neighborhood setting just steps from everything that makes life in the Park so special. Stroll to Ewald Library, City Hall, and the soon-to-open state-of-the-art Schapp Performing Arts Center. A couple blocks more brings you to the vibrant Kercheval business district with beloved local favorites like Maison Parc Floral, Coreander’s Children’s Bookshoppe, Park Grill, Bricks Pizzeria, and LeRouge Boulangerie. Award-winning Grosse Pointe schools are nearby, with Defer Elementary and Pierce Middle School just an easy walk away. Living here means access to Grosse Pointe Park’s two private resident waterfront parks – Windmill Pointe and Patterson Park – offering pools and splash pads, marina slips, kayak launches, tennis and pickleball courts, fitness centers, first-run movie theaters, playgrounds, picnic areas, and year-round community events. Just minutes from downtown Detroit, Belle Isle, and the Riverwalk, this location delivers the perfect balance of neighborhood charm and city convenience. Inside, timeless character blends effortlessly with thoughtful updates. The spacious living room welcomes you with hardwood floors, natural woodwork, a cozy fireplace, and a dramatic cathedral-style wood-beamed ceiling – the kind of architectural detail that makes homes like this truly special. A large formal dining room flows into the updated eat-in kitchen, offering modern finishes and excellent functionality for everyday living. A flexible bonus room on the main floor is ideal as a home office, den, or creative space, and a convenient powder room completes the first level. Upstairs you’ll find three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath. The newly finished lower level is a standout feature, expanding the home’s living space with a recreation area, full bath, and a separate room perfect for guests, a home gym, media room, or additional work-from-home space. A second basement fireplace adds warmth and charm to this inviting retreat. Important updates provide peace of mind, including central air, updated electrical, and newer windows. The semi-attached garage connects to the home via a covered breezeway, offering sheltered access year-round. Outside, the fenced backyard provides wonderful garden space and room to relax, with the potential to add a larger garage if desired. As an added bonus, the seller is including the framed television with custom frame above the living room fireplace – a true showstopper and perfect finishing touch to this charming home. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, looking to downsize without sacrificing character, or seeking a home in one of the Park’s most walkable and vibrant locations, 970 Lakepointe offers an incredible opportunity to enjoy the very best of GPP!
