This is a wonderful 4 bedroom, multi family home, and the perfect location for an Airbnb. Still owned by the original builder, the house sits across the street from Fox creek canal, and backs up to Grosse Pointe Park. A big plus is you're just 200 yards from Lake Saint Clair. If you're a boater, the launch is just 500 feet away. A current vacation rental around the corner is generating $700 per night. As well, no expense has been spared with the upgrades that include Crestline windows, granite countertops, custom cabinets in both the bathrooms and the kitchens, glass bowl sinks, walk in showers, central air, tankless water heaters, skylights, central air, complete insulation in all walls and ceilings, and much more. There is even a finished room in the basement, perfect for use as a small theatre. The newer roof, full copper plumbing and newer hvac, will provide you with maintenance free ownership for years to come. You have to see this one to appreciate the level of workmanship, so make your appointment today.
