16 Hawthorne Rd, Grosse Pointe Shores, MI 48236 1411

Originally built in 1948 & owned & lovingly maintained by the current seller since 1988, this sensible Shores ranch is ready for new residents! One will truly appreciate the open layout connecting the living, dining, & family room areas. There exists potential to further enhance that sense of openness through modification to the kitchen & the wall that traverses the dual natural fireplace. The house could also be modified into a Cape Cod by converting the attic into living space. The deck extending out into the lush, wooded backyard has been redone. Other recent updates & improvements include a new sink & vanity in the bathroom, a new window in the family room, & a relatively new furnace. The basement features laundry facilities & a substantial amount of finished space including an additional bedroom & allows for even more finished space if the future owner so desires. No need to worry about water infiltration in the sealed-off basement as none has occurred since the home was last purchased. As is the case with any other property, location is paramount & this place is certainly no exception, being situated just one house away from Lakeshore Road. Practically immediate access to the Grosse Pointe Shores municipal offices, recreation through the city parks which offer swimming, boating, tennis, pickleball, & much more, the Grosse Pointe Yacht Club, & Lake Saint Clair itself all await. The current seller purchased this home all those years ago without even looking inside the house & it's not hard to see why!
