About this home
All Offers Due by Tuesday (10/6/26) by 1pm. Welcome to this beautifully updated, all-brick Cape Cod in Grosse Pointe Woods, built in 1939 and set on a desirable double lot. A major renovation in 1999 added a full primary suite on the main floor, creating comfortable living spaces while preserving the home's classic character. The expanded kitchen was bumped out by two feet and features granite countertops and custom Amish-made cabinetry. Fresh interior paint, original hardwood floors on the main level, and a gas fireplace add warmth and charm. The home offers a main-floor primary suite, two large bedrooms upstairs, and three full bathrooms, including an upstairs bath shared by the two bedrooms. The main-floor bathroom was updated in 2025, and convenient main-floor laundry adds ease to everyday living. Additional highlights include a finished basement, newer blinds, a newer roof, and a two-car garage. The furnace was installed in 2021 and the water heater in 2020. The main floor is wheelchair accessible, along with the doorways. Two showers on the main floor. Outside, pristine landscaping, a backyard brick-paver patio, and a large driveway provide inviting spaces to relax, gather, and entertain. Enjoy a welcoming neighborhood with tree-lined sidewalks, an annual block party, and convenient proximity to both the elementary and middle schools. Grosse Pointe Woods is known for its neighborhood feel and community parks, while downtown Detroit is about 10 miles away--convenient for enjoying the city's dining, entertainment, and cultural destinations. C of O will be delivered and provided by the seller before closing.
