Rare opportunity to own the historic McDowell home, one of Royal Oak's architecturally significant gems. Builders collaborated with the Historical Society to meticulously remodel and add square footage to this landmark residence. The only known barn in the city acts as the garage and was awarded a "pride of ownership" certificate given by the Michigan Barn Preservation Network for demonstrating exceptional care and preservation. Home is located in the heart of downtown - a true WALK to all the entertainment the city offers. The remodel and addition were completed with superior materials and construction - all in keeping with the homes history and offering you the character that is often lacking in new construction options. Enclosed front porch is the perfect spot to relax and observe the hustle and bustle of downtown living. Third story loft could be used as a home office, playroom, or yoga studio. Open floor plan gives you that "wow factor" as soon as you open the front door and is perfect for entertaining. Updated kitchen features new stylish cabinetry, quartz, island, and Cafe appliances. Mud room and 2nd floor laundry. Primary suite with walk-in closet and large primary bath. New HVAC and roof. Family room features a new gas fireplace and door wall leading to expansive deck. Five exit points and two patios. Gorgeous brick and cedar shake exterior. High end light fixtures. Custom hardwood flooring was preserved and refinished and is an absolute showpiece. Bedroom with enclosed porch that would offer similar opportunities as the third level. Oversized 60' x 140' lot - irrigation in front yard. Barn offers a metal roof and 2nd story that could be finished or used for storage. This home is one of one and has been an absolute labor of love for the builders. Buy with confidence that you would own one of the most admired homes in the city! Buyers - please ask your agent to provide you with attached literature on the awards, articles, and certificates regarding this masterpiece. BATAI.
