Property Description
Historic Corktown Workers Cottage. In one of Detroit's hottest communities. The last property available. Very few sales in this area. Walking distance to the Ford Michigan Central Station (about 900 feet). Across the street from the Ford Corktown Information Center. Walking distance to where the new Detroit City Football Club Stadium will be constructed. Walking distance to restaurants and entertainment. 9'10" ceilings. Requires complete rehab. We can assist in finding reconstruction loans and project management. We highly recommend Michael Gordon from MGA Architects to design a million dollar property. A partner was going to renovate the property but is booked with other projects for several more years. We intended to tear down the newer rear addition, pickup the whole house and put a new full basement under it (with very high ceilings). Replace the removed portion with a new entertainer's kitchen, chef's kitchen, master suite and garage. Buyer's Agent to verify all information. Buyer to pay $595 Doc Fee. We can assist in having the property renovated to your desires. Using our recommended architect the ARV should be somewhere be somewhere north of $800,000.
