13610 Woodmont Avenue

Detroit City, MI 48227

Step back in time with this large 1930 brick bungalow, gracefully set on a rare 76-foot double lot in a quiet, tree-lined Detroit neighborhood. Offering nearly 1,900 sq. ft. above grade plus a partially finished 1,288-sq.-ft. basement, this home blends authentic 1930s craftsmanship with enduring architectural appeal. Inside, you’ll find 4 bedrooms and plumbing for 2 full baths with space for a half bath, anchored by a bright living room with plaster cove ceilings and a wood-burning brick fireplace. The formal dining room showcases hand-laid geometric terra-cotta flooring, a distinctive period feature that adds warmth and texture. Original mosaic tile flooring with vintage aqua inlays greets you in the entryway, a rare surviving detail that highlights the artistry of the era. The first-floor mint-green ceramic tile bath continues that heritage with timeless color and durable materials, while the upstairs bath includes a partially completed shower ready for finishing. The basement has space for a half bath, currently awaiting installation of a toilet. Throughout the home and basement, custom plaster ceilings completed by a master plasterer display old-world skill rarely seen today. The lower level offers glass-block windows, rec room, storage areas, and mechanical space, supported by a roof estimated at 8–10 years old and a boiler system installed approximately 10 years ago — a solid foundation for restoration or long-term ownership. Outside, the fenced yard spans two city parcels and features an original hand-crafted stone outdoor fireplace with built-in benches and remnants of a stone-lined garden pond, offering a unique opportunity to recreate a private garden courtyard or outdoor entertaining area. A long driveway provides ample parking and room for a future garage. Property taxes are currently in non-homestead status and will likely be lower if the new owner files a Principal Residence Exemption (PRE) and homesteads the property.
