Property Description
Beautifully updated brick Cape Cod ideally located in Detroit on the border of Grosse Pointe Park! This gorgeous three-bedroom, two-full-bath home has been completely renovated and is truly move-in ready. The spacious kitchen features newer stainless steel appliances and plenty of room for entertaining, while hardwood floors throughout add warmth and character to the home. One of the standout features is the massive 3-car garage, offering an incredible amount of parking, workspace, and flexibility.
