Charm, Character & Over 100 Acres of Nature Right Behind Your Home. Built in 1929, at the height of Detroit’s golden era of homebuilding, this solid brick colonial on Glenhurst is the kind of home they simply don’t build anymore. During this era, Detroit’s most skilled craftsmen were constructing custom homes with old-growth lumber, thick brick exteriors, and hardwood floors built to last a lifetime. Nearly 100 years later, this home still stands as proof of that legacy.
But the real showstopper? A 100+ acre passive nature park directly behind the property, no rear neighbors, just open skies, future trails, and boardwalks being developed to bring the healing power of nature to your doorstep every single day. Inside, nearly 1400 sq ft of thoughtfully updated living space greets you with gleaming hardwood floors throughout, plus a modern remodeled kitchen and full bath. New mechanicals, updated plumbing and electrical, and new siding mean the big-ticket items are already done, so you can move in with confidence and make it home. The finished basement adds valuable flex space and comes prepped for a full second bath, perfect for a growing family, a home office, or future equity you get to build. Whether you’re a first-time buyer ready to plant roots, a nature lover craving green space, or a family looking for more room to breathe, this home checks every box at a price that makes it possible. Studies show that access to green space positively changes how you feel, how you rest, and how you thrive. Here, that’s not a luxury, it’s your backyard. Ideally positioned near 7 Mile and Telegraph on Detroit’s northwest side, schedule your showing before someone else claims this piece of Detroit history.
