19375 cumberland way, detroit, MI 48203

Situated in the quiet heart of the Palmer Woods neighborhood in Detroit, this gracious 4776 square foot Tudor-style home is in pristine, near original condition. Built in 1926, and designed by architect Clarence Day, it is exemplary in both it’s grandeur and it’s livability. The formal entry opens up to a Spanish tile foyer with a sweeping curved staircase with wrought iron stair railing, Chippendale style wood paneled doors and stained glass windows. The living room, dining room, and library open off the central hallway in a pleasing, easy layout with large, leaded glass windows in every room and views to the gardens throughout. Stroll through the paneled dining room with barrel ceilings and plaster relief, leading into a generous sized kitchen, quite uncommon in the homes of this era. Created in 2004 with handmade cabinetry by a Michigan master cabinet maker, copper counters, and Brazilian cherry floors, this light-filled, charming, and hardworking space, is modern in it’s functionality for entertaining a crowd and includes two closets re-purposed into a pantry for ample storage. The primary suite occupies half of the second floor with a spacious bedroom, sitting room, and dressing room with lovely built-in closets. The ensuite primary bathroom has been sensitively renovated while retaining the original wall tile and adding a pleasing herringbone marble floor, new walk-in shower with custom-made tile, and a new imported English limestone soaking bath. Two additional large bedrooms share a “Jack and Jill” bathroom, with the third floor also boasting a full bath and 2 bedrooms for additional guests. A large walk-in cedar closet offers generous storage. 20 years of expert gardening showcases a bounty of perennials, and with a generous sized and beautifully contoured lawn, there is ample space to garden and entertain. Carriage house with 3 car garage features a functional 1 bedroom apartment above with all utilities.
