OHU50K NOTES

This for sale by owner 2-unit fixer upper offers beautiful fireplaces, unique doorways, hardwood and vintage sinks, among other original architectural features.

The home is on a block with at least six other sister homes, some vacant, in the Dexter-Linwood neighborhood of Detroit. The house is just a block over from the Russell Woods historic neighborhood, with Grand Blvd to the south, and the upscale neighborhood of Boston-Edison in close proximity.

Richton Street’s housing stock resembles that of the once-upper middle class Russell Woods neighborhood, with most houses large brick early 20th century homes or duplexes. If someone is willing to take a chance, Dexter-Linwood could have a lot going for it in the future.

OWNER COMMENTS

For Sale By Owner: A historic 2 family home was partitioned to accommodate more bedrooms on both floors and the attic, two owners ago. Keep it as is or bring it back to it’s original layout. Kitchens and baths are original, as are the wood hutches and in-wall ironing boards.

Both units need cosmetic and updates, doors and a few windows need to be replaced. Furnace and ductwork intact in the upper unit. Both units need water boilers as they have been removed from the basement. Lower unit needs a new furnace, old one removed. All appliances removed or not in working conditions. Cleanout was completed. Plumbing and electrical were in working condition when the property was occupied in 2019.

Interior showings only with accepted offer. All measurements estimated. BATVAI. Owner has never lived at the property. As-is sale. Sold via QCD. Buyer is responsible for back-taxes and back water bills. Buyer pays processing and closing fees. No inspection contingencies.

What I love about this home
The local historic Pewabic tiled fireplace, the original crown molding, arched doorways and wood details in this house catch everyone’s eye. The last owner’s conversion doesn’t do them justice. When the sun is out, the house is filled with sunlight, especially on the second floor. The vacant side lot can be purchased and fenced off to make a beautiful garden. The beauty and opportunity this property lends has not been taken advantage of by its past owners and tenants, and I would love to see it go to the right, enthusiastic hands.
