Description

Location, Location, Location - 90 feet of frontage two blocks from the M1 Rail. This 1897 Farmhouse was built by prominent business man HJ Leonard "in the country" of former Hamtramck Township, back when Horton was paved with wooden planks. It was then the Christian Industrial Club, a home for relocating uneducated women from the South. It's one of the oldest in the neighborhood, reminiscent of farmhouse construction. This home still needs a lot of work, but has a partially new water main, new triple pane windows throughout, and a new 200 amp panel. Most of the necessary demolition has been performed. It still boasts loads of character, comes with a fenced in side yard, and an additional 30 foot lot. Surrounded by one of Detroit's most prominent urban farms, this home is at the crossroads of modern transportation, bustling office and commercial, and "green infill and agriculture". By splitting the middle lot, you'll have a completely buildable 45 foot parcel next door.
