Historic grandeur meets soulful elegance. This 1917 Italian Renaissance Revival offers 6 beds, 3.1 baths, and 4,000 square feet of living space. An extraordinary lifestyle in one of Detroit’s most distinguished neighborhoods, historic Indian Village. Designed by renowned architects Mildner & Eisen for industrialist Jacob M. Schaefer, the home stands as a testament to enduring craftsmanship. Current owners have thoughtfully restored and modernized the home, upgrading major systems & preserving original elements, with a focus on durability, performance, and historically appropriate materials. A breathtaking foyer sets the tone. The sweeping staircase framed by rich, original woodwork is light filled. A private library wrapped in deep green offers a quiet retreat, while the formal living room—lined with new wood arched windows & centered on a stately gas fireplace with marble accents—invites gathering & conversation. The kitchen is the heart of the home, and is both functional & beautiful with custom inset cabinetry, soapstone countertops, Pewabic tilework, and a farmhouse sink paired with antique lacquered brass fixtures and premium appliances. The formal dining room offers coffered ceilings. Upstairs are 6 spacious bedrooms—one with a walkout deck, along with a luxurious 2nd floor laundry room. Every bathroom is an oasis, fully renovated with Kohler fixtures, generous showers, and heated floors. The finished basement extends the living space with antique brick walls and a Pewabic tile hearth. Outdoors, enjoy landscaped grounds, a custom cedar outdoor kitchen, and a 2-car garage. Significant improvements include comprehensive roof & chimney restoration. All major systems have been upgraded: a complete electrical rewire with a new panel, a state-of-the-art high-velocity HVAC system paired with an on-demand boiler for efficient, dual heating/cooling. Majority of windows are new and historically appropriate - a rare find. The opportunity to call this home is now.
