About this property

Step into timeless elegance in Detroit's iconic Boston Edison Historic District. This stately 1916 colonial, restored in 2018, blends historic character with thoughtful updates - offering space, craftsmanship, and charm that are increasingly hard to find. Classic curb appeal welcomes you into a neighborhood celebrated for architectural significance. Inside, enjoy generous room sizes, original details, and a flowing layout for everyday living and entertaining. The main level features light-filled living and dining spaces with restored original trim, doors with skeleton-key hardware, and preserved details that reflect the home's history. A gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance. The kitchen is both functional and connected, featuring granite countertops, a subway tile backsplash, and abundant cabinetry, while staying true to the home's historic style. Original windows have been restored, period-correct details maintained, and essential systems updated for peace of mind. Upstairs are six bedrooms across the upper levels - ideal for guest rooms, offices, creative spaces or growing households - plus two bathrooms, including a restored clawfoot tub. The layout offers privacy and versatility. The unfinished basement provides excellent storage and future potential, and the fully fenced backyard offers a private retreat. A detached two-car garage off the rear alley has been reinforced and updated with electric service and a new door - an uncommon bonus in historic homes. Major improvements include a new electrical panel, updated mechanicals, restored windows, improved drainage and gutters, and extensive preservation work that supports modern living. Located in a nationally recognized historic district, this home offers pride, legacy, and belonging - an opportunity to steward a truly special Boston Edison classic.
