With much of the major restoration already done, this home presents an exceptional opportunity for a visionary homeowner or investor to complete a historic masterpiece in one of Detroit's most admired neighborhoods.
Nestled on picturesque Burns Street, you're moments from West Village's charming cafes, restaurants, and boutiques, and blocks from East Village's emerging creative scene. The home is also located down the street from Waldorf school and Nichols Elementary School, along with Mollicone Playground! There is a rare paperbark maple out front, with cinnamon-colored exfoliating bark that holds aesthetic interest for all seasons. Indian Village itself is celebrated for its architectural splendor, tree-lined streets, and strong sense of community — a perfect blend of historic elegance and Detroit revival energy.
Bring your design ideas & craftsmanship to finish what's been beautifully started — and make this landmark home shine once again!
