Gorgeous Residence by Chicago Architect William Mann in Detroit’s Indian Village Historic District

A complete work of art, this stately six-bedroom, five-bathroom residence by Chicago architect William Mann in 1916 and was brilliantly renovated in 2009. Located in Detroit’s prestigious Indian Village Historic District, the remarkable residence has been meticulously attended to and preserved with great care. Its stately stucco exterior showcases Italian Renaissance-inspired architecture, graceful arched windows and entryways, decorative shutters, deep overhanging eaves, and mature landscaping that provides both beauty and privacy. With the guiding hand of an informed design aesthetic, the interior seamlessly blends historic character and built-in elegance with modern amenities and contemporary flourishes. A striking juxtaposition of details, like elegant plaster trim moulding alongside vibrantly patterned wallpaper, comes to life throughout. Among the home’s many highlights include beautifully refinished hardwood floors, a light-filled solarium, and an unusually spacious and open modern kitchen appointed with high-end appliances, an eat-in marble counter, and the preservation of notable historic details, like the home’s original built-in icebox—a distinctive reminder of its history. An elegant, spacious primary suite comes with an adjoining full bath and private dressing room, and each of the home’s five bathrooms has been tastefully designed and finished with careful attention to detail. Outside, a gorgeous landscaped garden and private pool create an exceptional retreat in the heart of the city. Extensive improvements include updated electrical and plumbing systems, newer insulation and central air conditioning, as well as a newer boiler and roof. The expansive third-floor attic provides exceptional flexibility for future living space, a studio, home office, or additional storage, while a partially finished basement offers even more versatile space. 24 hours’ notice is required for showings.
