Property Description
A once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a piece of Sterling Heights history. Built in 1912 and offered for sale for just the third time in its remarkable 114-year history, this extraordinary estate blends timeless craftsmanship, architectural character, and exceptional potential. Situated on 3.17 picturesque acres surrounded by mature trees, the property offers a rare combination of privacy, history, and opportunity. Inside, remarkable craftsmanship takes center stage. Custom hexagon-pattern red oak and walnut flooring graces the foyer and formal dining room, complemented by a handcrafted coffered ceiling, intricate millwork, and stunning architectural details. A leaded-brass, beveled art-glass staircase door reflects the home's distinctive design. Historic treasures include William Morris hardware imported from Harrods in London and an original chandelier that once belonged to the first violinist of the Detroit Symphony Orchestra. Built with enduring double-brick construction, the residence retains much of its original character, including original hardwood flooring beneath several carpeted rooms. A first-floor primary suite features heated tile flooring, cedar-lined closets, and a custom wood-louver fireplace wall. Beyond the home, 3.17 sprawling acres offer extraordinary possibilities. Mature landscaping, an underground irrigation system supplied through a deeded Clinton River water agreement, and the potential to divide the property into three parcels create a truly unique opportunity, subject to final municipal approvals. More than a home, this is a legacy. A rare chance to become only the third owner of this historic estate and carry forward over a century of craftsmanship and character. Properties like this are not simply built again. They are preserved, cherished, and passed from one generation to the next.
