Property Description
The Shrewsbury Cornerstone offers the rare opportunity to enjoy a beautifully updated historic Tudor while preserving the character that keeps Detroit's historic neighborhoods in high demand. This home currently has NEZ taxes for 15 years. Situated on a prominent corner lot in Greenacres, this limestone and brick residence blends timeless architectural details, modern improvements, and flexibility for today's lifestyle. Natural light pours through oversized windows, highlighting refinished hardwood floors, crown molding, stained glass accents, ornate ceilings, a bay window, and a marble-surround fireplace. The library/home office provides the ideal space for remote work or creative pursuits. The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast nook and bar area. Historic character continues throughout the home, including preserved 1930's Art Deco ceramic tile details in select bathrooms with updates and a completely updated bathroom with a historic stained glass window. One of the bedrooms has a private walkout to a balcony, while the primary bedroom has an adjacent Jack-and-Jill bathroom with the opportunity to create a true primary suite with a spacious walk-in closet. The large attic space allows for instant equity when finished. The expansive lower level offers flexibility for entertaining and recreation and the large lower-level room could be easily converted back to a bedroom by reinstalling what was a previous egress window. More improvements in 2025 include a new roof, electrical panel, furnace, hot water heater, plumbing updates, second floor laundry hook ups, refinished hardwood flooring in most rooms, garage door and opener, lighting, backyard concrete, gutters, and downspouts. This home is located near the Avenue of Fashion, Detroit Golf Club, Sherwood Forest, Palmer Woods, parks, dining, shopping and major commuter routes. The Shrewsbury Cornerstone offers a blend of historic charm, modern updates, home office flexibility, and exceptional entertaining space.
