Property Description

644 Melbourne is a classic 1918 Detroit home located in the historic North End, a neighborhood deeply tied to the city’s early residential growth and its proximity to Woodward Avenue’s automotive and cultural corridors. Thoughtfully updated, the home balances modern comfort with original architectural details that reflect its era. Inside, the open main level features hardwood floors, high ceilings, and a solid, functional layout typical of early Detroit construction—built with quality craftsmanship meant to last. The home offers four bedrooms and two-and-a-half baths, including a true first-floor primary suite, a rare and valuable feature for homes of this period. Bathrooms have been updated, and the home benefits from newer HVAC, roof, windows, and interior improvements, providing peace of mind for the next owner. Original character remains throughout, including wood bannisters, detailed trim, archways, vintage cabinetry, and original wood floors, preserving the integrity and charm of the home’s early 20th-century design. The kitchen pairs its preserved cabinetry with granite countertops, newer appliances, and practical prep and storage space that aligns with the home’s original footprint. The basement is dry and functional, offering additional storage and laundry space. Out back, the fenced yard provides privacy and outdoor living, complete with a deck, refreshed landscaping, and alley access for parking, consistent with traditional Detroit lot design. The North End continues to experience steady reinvestment and restoration, supported by its close proximity to the Henry Ford Hospital campus, Midtown, and Downtown, while remaining architecturally rich and community driven.
