This lovingly restored 1920 Colonial on Van Dyke Place stands out for scale and detail: three stories and 3,613 square feet of living space that marry original proportions with high-end contemporary finishes. Enter through a gracious foyer into rooms defined by red oak hardwood floors, high ceilings and floor-to-ceiling French doors that create expansive sightlines from one room to the next. Custom millwork and cabinetry anchor the interior; Calacatta Dardania countertops and Zellige tile accents give the cook’s kitchen an artisanal yet durable character.
The first floor includes a thoughtfully placed guest suite and full bath—ideal for visitors, a home office, or accessible living. Upstairs, the second-floor primary suite is a private retreat with dual walk-in closets and a small private balcony that looks onto the tree-lined street. Bedrooms and baths throughout the upper floors reflect the same renovation quality: high-end fixtures, tiled baths, and generous scale. The third-floor level offers a flexible full-bath suite with a soaking tub—perfect as a media room, studio, or nanny/apartment-style space.
Below, the partially finished basement with 9.5-foot ceilings and roughed-in plumbing is a notable value-add: configured now for storage and utilities, it has clear potential for a rec room, home gym, or additional bedroom suite. Systems include forced-air gas heating and central AC. Outside, the lot sits level with a 40-foot frontage and a parking pad; a detached two-car garage is planned (permits and completion pending), which will further enhance functionality for owners.
Sited in Detroit’s West Village, this home places you steps from neighborhood retail and dining, with Belle Isle Park and the Detroit Riverwalk under a mile away. The finish palette and thoughtful restoration make this property move-in ready for buyers who want historic character without the heavy lift of renovation. Note: the home sits within the West Village Historic District—prospective buyers should review Historic District Commission guidelines for exterior work and confirm permits for the planned garage construction.
