Property Description

A Grand 1928 Gustav Steffens Masterpiece Step into the warm embrace of this architecturally significant residence, where timeless custom craftsmanship and character remain beautifully intact and well maintained. Designed by noted architect Gustav Steffens in 1928, this stately home offers 6 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, and over 4,600 square feet of gracious living space on three stories with finished basement level. Entering from the terracotta walkway and raised terrace through the bright Pewabic-tiled vestibule, exquisite detail unfolds at every turn: decorative ornate plaster moldings and glazed medallions, six original French doors, with pocket and accordion doors in the large principal rooms, allow for gracious entertaining. Carved woodwork, and floor to ceiling leaded-glass windows throughout. The elegant fenestration extends into the original glass doors in the library and alcove adjacent to the 28' floor living room. Gleaming refinished hardwood floors flow beneath soaring, sunlit rooms freshly painted to showcase their unique architectural pedigree. The al-coved eat-in kitchen is designed for gathering, offering ample room for extended, uncrowded cooking and entertaining, and features new Thermador appliances, a second staircase and new porch, The formal dining room, framed by a bay window overlooking the garden, and another tiled terrace sets an elegant backdrop for memorable dinners, while the living room's French limestone fireplace and original stained glass add timeless warmth, old-world comfort and charm. The lower level offers a spacious refinished recreation room with terrazzo flooring, along with a basement workshop featuring an added bath — ideal for hobbies, projects, or additional living space. Thoughtfully maintained mechanicals included and the exterior is complete with a newer aggregate driveway, wrought iron fence and a varnished 3-car garage interior with loft storage above. This is a rare opportunity to own a true architectural landmark — where 1920s grandeur and tranquility by design meets modern-day active livability nearby; half a block to all the recreational amenities of Lake St. Clare's two GP parks, playgrounds, two theaters, pools, clubhouse center, gym and marina.
