This home blends vintage character with thoughtful updates and access to some of the most desirable community amenities in Metro Detroit. Step inside through the enclosed front porch, perfect for morning coffee or quiet evenings. The living room is anchored by a fireplace and rich hardwood floors, creating a warm, welcoming space. In the dining room, leaded glass windows add character and classic charm. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with oak cabinetry, glass-front upper cabinets flanking the sink, and eye-catching blue tile for a pop of personality. Two main floor bedrooms offer flexibility, with one featuring French door access to the backyard, ideal for a home office or guest room. The full bath on the main level has been refreshed with a clean, modern finish. Upstairs, the large bedroom offers excellent closet space and a cozy nook perfect for a desk or reading area.

The backyard is both functional and serene, whether you're relaxing solo or gathering with friends. Residents of Pleasant Ridge enjoy access to a private community center with pool, fitness facilities, tennis courts, parks, dog run, and more, all just steps from your front door. This is a rare opportunity to own a timeless home in a close-knit, amenity-rich neighborhood with walkable streets and a strong sense of community.
