A striking Tudor-style home, the property draws the viewer in with its steeply-pitched gables, arched doorway, and handsome multi-tonal brickwork. Inside, a brick fireplace is the focal point of the living room, where ribbon windows allow for plenty of natural light. While in need of substantial renovation work, the house offers a range of attractive and historic features to the purchaser, including separate living and dining rooms, interior shutter doors, in-built shelving, and original plaster moldings. Built in 1924, the sizable home contain 3 common rooms, in addition to a kitchen, 3 bedrooms, and 1 full bath, in its 1400 square feet of living space, plus 1 half bath in the basement.
Located among the charming and distinctive homes of Detroit’s Bagley neighborhood, the property also benefits from close proximity to a range of amenities, including beautiful Palmer Park, the shopping and dining options of the resurgent Livernois Corridor, newly-constructed Mumford High School, and highly-regarded University of Detroit, Mercy.
While many historic details remain, the purchaser should plan on carrying out extensive repair work to bring the property up to code, including repairs to hardwood flooring, kitchen, and bathrooms, among other renovations. Please consult the presale inspection report for more information. Finally, please note that the purchaser will be responsible for the current year (2014); property taxes at the time of closing.

COLLUSION (BID-RIGGING) IN AN AUCTION IS A CRIME
Collusion between bidders in a DLBA auction, which is also known as “bid-rigging,” is a type of fraud and a violation of Federal antitrust laws. The DLBA takes the integrity of its auctions very seriously and bid-rigging is unfair to competing bidders and, ultimately, to the people of the City of Detroit. If the DLBA finds evidence of collusion in an auction, it reserves the right and will not hesitate to, as appropriate, reject specific bids, cancel an entire auction (in each case keeping the deposits or downpayments of the colluding parties), and/or pursue criminal prosecution of the parties involved to the fullest extent of the law.
