Spanning 4,195 sq ft above grade, with an expansive 2,000 sq ft basement and a generous attic, this 1904 Arts & Crafts masterpiece by architect Joseph E. Mills offers endless potential for multi-family glory or a stunning single-family haven. Built for Anthony Grosfield, its timeless design blends historical elegance with modern adaptability. Step inside to soaring spaces boasting original plaster walls that whisper of yesteryear's craftsmanship—ready to be unveiled in all their glory. Hardwood floors, in remarkable condition, stretch across both units, begging for a simple finish to shine underfoot. The first and second floors flow seamlessly, while the massive attic invites creative loft conversions, its exposed wood beams free of any water damage, ensuring structural integrity. Outside, the striking stone facade commands attention on a spacious 0.25-acre corner lot, framed by mature trees and room to build a detached garage with additional parking spots. The asphalt roof is rock-solid, leak-free, safeguarding your investment from day one. Below ground, the dry basement provides ample storage or bonus living space, untouched by moisture woes. Location? Unbeatable. Nestled just off Michigan Ave, this powerhouse sits equidistant from the iconic Michigan Central Station, Ford's buzzing innovation hub, & the Clark Park Technology District, fueling a renaissance of tech, arts, and culture. Walk to trendy cafes, breweries, and the pulse of New Center's revival. Zoned for mixed-use dreams, it's primed for rental yields or flip profits in a market where values soar.
