Property Description
There is truly no other home like this. Known as The Little Castle, this enchanting limestone Tudor Cottage was designed in 1929 by acclaimed architect Dalton J. Snyder as his personal residence. Inspired by the charm of the English Cotswolds, this 2,076-sq-ft home blends storybook architecture with modern updates. The exterior offers exceptional curb appeal with whimsical dormers, distinctive rooflines, arched swinging cottage windows-and a private front terrace perfect for morning coffee or evening conversation. Inside, rich woodwork, pegged random-plank floors, and a step-down living room with a glowing stone fireplace reflect the warmth of a bygone era. The renovated kitchen pairs historic charm with modern sophistication, featuring Fisher & Paykel stainless appliances and countertop seating. Nearby, a versatile space offers casual dining, a home workspace, or a reading nook-and includes a first-floor laundry closet, powder room, and formal dining room. There are three bedrooms and two full baths, including a serene primary suite with a spacious updated shower and radiant heated floors. Architectural lines, curves, and natural light create a dynamic, inspiring interior. Outside, a curvaceous driveway flows into a private auto court-an elegant focal point of the lush, fenced yard and patio, ideal for entertaining or enjoying the outdoors. In the heart of Grosse Pointe Farms, just a short walk to The Hill, Richard Elementary, Brownell Middle and Grosse Pointe South High School. A rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind property where charm, character, and comfort converge.
