600 Middlesex Rd, Grosse Pointe Park, MI 48230 1740

Just steps from Lake St. Clair, this sophisticated midcentury-modern split-level is located in one of the Grosse Pointes' original subdivisions. A five-bedroom/3.5 bathroom corner-lot home with side-entrance driveway sits on a quiet boulevard that shares its name with the title and setting of the 2003 Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. Highly coveted midcentury details include elongated Roman brick walls and fireplace, open-plan first floor with peaked ceilings and sliding glass doors, a lower-level wood ceiling, and tasteful tile entryway. On a sizable lot with enviable views onto a lush green, tree-shrouded rear yard, this surprisingly expansive home has enormous curb appeal with a dark-grey facade and lipstick-red entry door. Among the 21st-century updates are an EV charger in the 2.5-car garage, and a contemporary kitchen. The quiet street spills into shoreline-hugging, low-traffic Windmill Pointe Boulevard that ends in a resident park with pool, marina, fitness center, and even a cinema that shows fresh box-office fare.

A wonderful Park home that offers a great layout and functionality for today's living. The gorgeous, well manicured grounds makes sitting out on the patio feel like you are out in the country. Space galore inside, the master is separate from the other bedrooms all connected by a great room with vaulted ceilings, a hard find in this area. The updated kitchen has been tastefully done and opens up to the dining area and great room. Plenty of room to entertain with the wide open living space and bonus pub room with walk out to a private patio and recreation room in the basement. A home office makes this ideal for today's work environment. Plenty of space for a nanny or au pair if that is an option for a buyer. A 2 1/2 car attached garage with large driveway allows for ample parking. So many great features and steps away from the residents only Windmill Pointe and Patterson Parks and all of their great amenities. Award winning Grosse Pointe Schools make this a great place to raise a family.
