This beautiful brick three bedroom one and a half bath colonial is set on a gently winding tree-lined Grosse Pointe Woods street. You’ll be greeted by an 18 x 13 living room with its handsome hardwood floor and fireplace. The fully equipped kitchen is delightful with blonde cabinets that extend to the ceiling, beautiful counter tops, hardwood floors, stainless appliances and room for a breakfast table. The kitchen window opens out over a 14 x 21 raised paver patio and a deep lot. Just off of the kitchen, there is a formal dining room that leads to a den with a door that steps down to the patio. The bathrooms are bright and updated. The basement has a nice open rec area and ingeniously devised curtains that can quickly conceal utility areas. This package is ready for immediate occupancy and includes access to “Lakefront Park†with pool and marina privileges. Freeways are easily accessible— about 15 minutes to dinner or a game Downtown and about the same time to Royal Oak.
