Meticulously maintained Bob Wood designed colonial in the heart of Grosse Pointe Farms one block from Lake Shore. This elegant property is being sold with the adjoining open lot on Lake Shore Drive giving the home water views from nearly every room. The professionally maintained private lake-view garden and expansive property (more than 1 acre) is a haven for songbirds and butterflies. The home has been cared for by the same owner for the last forty years with many recent updates including a new cedar shake roof (2023), 2 new high-efficiency gas furnaces/air conditioners (2023), a whole house backup generator (2023) and a 75-gallon water heater (2024). There is no need for a first-floor bedroom as the home has a private elevator directly to the master suite. The light and airy chef's kitchen features high-end appliances by Gaggenau, Sub-Zero, Thermador, and Miele. Cabinetry by Downsview and granite countertops with seating. The kitchen connects to a formal dining room where memories can be made over elegant family dinners.

The office/den is perfect for remote work complete with a wet bar and Scotsman mini refrigerator and ice machine. Spacious walk-in closets are featured in every bedroom as are full bathrooms.
