Property Description
Set on storied Edison Street, this meticulously renovated three-story brick residence stands within Detroit's Boston–Edison Historic District, one of the nation's largest collections of early-20th-century homes. Completely renovated from the windows and floors to the central heating and cooling, kitchen, and baths, the home marries period stature with modern comfort. A broad front elevation gives way to gracious interior proportions, culminating in five bedrooms and three full baths plus a powder room arranged for easy daily living and elegant entertaining. The main kitchen presents on-trend two-tone cabinetry with stainless appliances, setting a polished tone for gatherings that spill naturally onto a large rear deck. Beyond the deck, a detached two-car garage provides coveted off-street parking and storage. The finished lower level adds a practical bath with shower and an expansive open area—ideal for a fitness studio, project space, casual den, or simply smart storage—alongside a full laundry room. Outside the door, residents enjoy the tree-lined calm of a district conceived in the early 1900s and anchored by neighborhood green spaces such as Voigt Park.
All exterior stewardship benefits from Boston-Edison's preservation framework, a point of pride that safeguards architectural character block by block.
With New Center, cultural institutions, and key corridors just minutes away, 2255 Edison offers a rare blend of historic gravitas and turnkey readiness in one of Detroit's most celebrated neighborhoods.
