931 Vaughan Road, Bloomfield Hills, MI 48304

The moment you step through the front gates of 931 Vaughan Road you encounter a rare piece of Bloomfield Hills history: a 1929 Tudor estate that pairs original artisanal detail with large-scale livability. In the bar, an astonishing historic tile salvaged from Napoleon Bonaparte’s carriage house anchors a room that feels more like a private museum than a secondary entertaining space—one of many bespoke touches across 13,736 square feet. Brick and slate-roof construction, deep horizontal leaded windows, and a dramatic grand foyer set the tone for richly layered interiors.

Rooms were conceived for both formality and function. The house features a stately library, formal living and dining rooms, and a ballroom sized for large gatherings. Six full bathrooms and four half baths support seven bedrooms plus a finished basement and multiple fireplaces that preserve the home’s original character while modern systems—forced-air natural gas heat and central air—deliver contemporary comfort. Practical luxury continues with an attached 6-car garage and a long private driveway off Vaughan Road providing complete privacy and ease of arrival.

Outside, the property’s 8.22 rolling acres are an estate unto themselves: a swimming pool, a full tennis court, and a separate guest house make this property an ideal compound for both family life and entertaining. With 460 feet of frontage on Vaughan Road and landscaping that frames sweeping lawns and specimen plantings, the grounds read as a private park immediately adjacent to cultural anchors.

Location elevates the value proposition. Cranbrook Educational Community sits a half-mile away, Bloomfield Hills Country Club is within easy reach, and downtown Birmingham’s shops and restaurants are a short drive. The home’s condition is listed as excellent; buyers should note the historic nature of the property will call for specialized maintenance and a careful preservation-minded approach. This is a rare opportunity to own a landmark Tudor estate in one of Michigan’s most distinguished neighborhoods—offering scale, provenance, and a lifestyle that few properties can match.

Bloomfield Hills is an affluent, tree-lined enclave defined by large estate lots, distinguished architecture, and proximity to cultural institutions. Residents value privacy and community amenities—most notably Cranbrook Educational Community, elite country clubs, boutique shopping and dining in nearby Birmingham, and the high-end Somerset Collection. Public schools in the Bloomfield Hills district consistently rank at the top of local ratings, making the area desirable for families seeking both academic excellence and a suburban lifestyle within easy reach of Detroit’s amenities.
