About this home
Welcome to 71 Vernier! A beautifully updated and well maintained Colonial just a short walk to Lake St. Clair and the residents-only Grosse Pointe Shores Lakefront Park. This very comfortable 1250 sq. ft. home with lots of natural light throughout has 3 bedrooms, one full and one half bath (in basement), a two car detached garage, and an exceptional 150-foot-deep lot. The first floor features a circular layout ideal for entertaining, an inviting living room with hardwood floors, a natural wood burning fireplace with new stone tile surround and marble tile hearth. The dining room features wainscoting, hardwood floors and a French door that opens onto the rear deck with great views of the incredible fenced outdoor space, offering plenty of space to relax and entertain. The updated kitchen combines style and function with a tin-inspired ceiling, abundant custom cabinetry, granite countertops, newer appliances, a coffee and wine station, and a large bay-window with sink-base cabinetry overlooking the yard. Upstairs you will find newer neutral tone carpet and warm tone paints throughout making for a very comfortable and restful atmosphere. The remodeled full bath is a standout, featuring a new tub and fixtures, a white with black accent marble basketweave tile floor, and full-slab white marble tub and shower surrounds with dramatic black veining. Additional updates and amenities include replacement Wallside Windows throughout, a new roof on the house and garage (2018), air conditioning (2016), an updated electrical panel (2019), dedicated 220-volt electrical service in the garage, a whole-house water-filtration system, a wired home security and camera system, Cat 5 Ethernet and coaxial connections in every bedroom and primary living space. Also added for enjoyment and relaxation in 2020 was a large patio area and hot tub. The residents-only GP Shores Park features a marina with docks, swimming pool, tennis/pickleball courts, playscapes, and beautiful landscaped grounds.
